Tomato and corn casserole

My husband hates casseroles. Too bad. I like this one, and its one of the few ways to get him to eat fresh corn (he hates corn on the cob).

Tomato and corn casserole

5 ears corn, cut off the cobb
2 large tomatoes, cubed
4 garlic cloves, smashed
3 pieces whole wheat bread, torn
1 cup buttermilk
