Green Tomato Time

Sometimes you have to make radical changes. I was starting to feel like one of our tomato plants was crowding out the mustard and spinach seedlings so I decided to take the plant out before it's time. There weren't that many tomatoes left anyway, and perhaps some of them would have ripened but now they are good for green tomato recipes. We have four other tomato plants to prepare green tomato recipes for anyway because there will always be green tomatoes at the end of the season. Thanks Black Prince, you've been great, but it's time to make room for the winter garden.

 I am not providing you with any recipes you can't find yourself. But here are some I think look worthwhile:

Green Tomato Chutney - just in time for Thanksgiving

Green and Red Tomato and Corn Soup - since it's the season for corn, anyway

"Southern" Fried Green Tomatoes - cornmeal is the key

Green Tomato Salsa Verde - who doesn't eat salsa?

Green Tomato Bread - could be good with squash too

BL-Fried Green T Sandwiches - BLT's were one of my favorites growing up

With all these options perhaps we won't have enough green tomatoes to go around. I'm excited.
