fried green tomatoes.

we have LOTS of green tomatoes.
and, i've seen the movie, "Fried, Green Tomatoes."

so, i thought i'd give it a try!
used this recipe- because it's the BEST Fried Green Tomato recipe.

4 large green tomatoes

2 eggs
1/2 cup milk

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup bread crumbs
2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1 quart vegetable oil for frying

They were SOO good!
i didn't take a picture till the bottom of the pile.
these might not look crisp and yummy, but they were.
Fried Green Tomatoes are not mushy, they're firm and a bit tangy.
Even my non-tomato eating kids LOVED fried green tomatoes.
"Mickey likes it!"
what a fun, new garden tradition!
