    Default Green Tomatoes

    So last night I had to pull tomatoes because of frost and I now have somewhere around 50 pounds of green tomatoes. Does anyone have suggestions for these?

    I just tried fried green tomatoes.

    I have green tomato bread in the oven now.

    What else?

    The wife and I have a ton of green tomatoes as well. We're planning on making up a batch of hot green salsa this week for canning. There are lots of different recipes on the web. Ours contains:

    chopped green tomatoes
    chopped, seeded jalapenos
    chopped, serrano peppers
    chopped, poblano peppers
    chopped white onion
    lime juice
    finely chopped garlic
    cumin
    oregano
    salt & pepper

    we might also add some cilantro. We'll see how she does once she gets cookin'. And we'll obviously adjust the amounts for our particular tastes.

    Hope this helps!

    I like this idea, thanks. I have a bunch of jalapenos I pulled the same night.

    Mine have been sitting for a few days now and a few have started to redden up. I guess they were further along than I thought when I pulled them.

    This use sounds gross but give it a try because it did turn out really well. Green Tomato Bread. It tastes really close to other fruit breads (zucchini or carrot).

    Mr Yan-

    I wouldn't mind trying green tomato bread. Do you have a recipe?

    Here's a link:www.food.com / Green-Tomato-Bread-53325

    While it was good there was some depth missing from the flavor.

    If I remember correctly I only had about half the sugar on hand when I made it so, as is normal for me, I just winged it.
