1 lg Ripe tomato, peeled,

In a large saucepan or soup kettle heat remaining 1/4 cup of oil. Add
zucchini, red pepper, tomato, eggplant and onion. Cook until tender,
then stir in bread mixture. (Bread will break down as soup cooks and
acts as a thickener.)

Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately in heated bowls.
Garnish with toasted almonds. Makes 11 cups.
