Tomato and Summer Squash Gratin

This recipe serves:  6

2 medium summer squash, cut in half lengthwise and sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh oregano or parsley
salt to taste
freshly ground black pepper
2 large ripe tomatoes, cored and sliced
1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 cloves minced garlic
2 teaspoons olive oil
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.

2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the summer squash with half of the oregano and season generously with salt and pepper. Transfer the seasoned squash to a large baking dish and cover with the sliced tomatoes.
