1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon crushed oregano
1 teaspoon sugar

Stir together first eight ingredients. Drain the tomatoes into a measuring cup and add enough milk to the liquid to make 2/3 cup. Add the liquid, eggs and oil to the dry ingredients and stir to blend. Cut the tomatoes into large chunks and carefully fold into the batter (it will be stiff).
