Preparation
Preheat oven to 350 °F (180 °C).
Partially cook bacon slices; set aside.
Cut tops from tomatoes; scoop out pulp and retain, discarding juice and seeds. Turn tomatoes upside down on a paper towel to drain while preparing filling.
Remove crusts from bread; crumble bread and combine with milk; soak 5 min. Stir in remaining ingredients, including chopped tomato pulp and cheese.
Season the inside of each tomato cup with a pinch of oregano, salt and pepper; fill with savory mixture. Wrap a bacon slice around each tomato; secure with tooth picks. Bake in oven until filling is set, 15 to 20 min.
