So, if you have a bunch of these laying around
Have I got a deal for you!
Start by slicing them up
then pour some Italian bread crumbs into a bowl
put the tomatoes in the bowl
and mix to coat the tomatoes with the crumbs
heat a little oil in a skillet and place the tomatoes in single file
awww…..just listen

Fry until brown on both sides and serve with a crisp Sauvignon Blanc. Truly one of the very best taste combinations ever! A party in your mouth people!

These look sooo good. I’ve always wondered about green fried tomatoes, but I didn’t realized they were seasoned first. Mmm… mmm.

Kat Rawson says
Sounds so good to me. Your post made my mouth water. All of our tomatoes ripened early this year and there are none left to fry. My question is how did a Rocky Mountain girl learn to fry green tomatoes? (I was raised in the Rockies too but live in the south now)
Nice to meet you,
Kat

Hi Kat,
I learned to fry green tomatoes from my dear sweet mother in law who was born in PA (like I was). Her husband was in the Navy and they spent a lot of time living in the South on Naval Bases. She picked up some great cooking ideas when she lived there and passed them on to me.
Thanks for stopping by!

Genie Robinson says
My, oh my….did you give us a GREAT post. I have green tomatoes coming out my ears because we had to pick them all before the the first big frost. The way you presented the recipe with all of the pictures was just the best. Thanks so much.

Arkansas Patti says
I love fried green tomatoes. We have a concession stand here that feeds the folks who come to listen to the free music in the park. Fried green tomatoes in a basket are the best sellers. Yum.
victoria says
Love them…never had them with SB 😀
great GREEN photos 😀

They are a once a year taste treat in this house, too, Rocky Mountain Woman! I’ll have to try them with the Sauvignon Blanc wine next year! 🙂

I’ve never tried fried green tomatos. . .they look delicious!
Jenny Matlock says
Yummy. I do something similar but soak them in buttermilk with a few dashes of hot sauce for a few minutes.
Yours look delicious!
If I can keep my dog out of my garden I will try this soon! So far the metal loops seems to be working and more tomatoes seem to be getting a little bigger.
Thanks for a scrumptious stop on our little journey through Alphabe-Thursday!
You are GREAT!
A+

Must admit – I’ve never tried fried green tomatoes but I’ve never seen a recipe that made me want to try it either! This one I might have to try 😛 thanks!

One of my faves! The addition of Sauvignon is a GREAT idea:) Yummy coated in flour and fried to a burned crisp too!
Amanda says
Amen, sister!
Judier says
You are not going to believe this, since I am from the south, but I first made friend green tomatoes LAST YEAR for my son-in-law. They actually turned out quite good! No leftovers!
La says
They look yummy. I’m sure there are a lot of gardeners who are left with piles of green tomatoes at the end of the growing season.
lissa says
fried green tomatoes? yes, though I have never try it, but it looks delicious!
Betty says
They sounded good! I almost thought I could smell them cooking. I’ve never had fried green tomatoes, but I’ve wanted to try them ever since the movie.
Freda says
I’ve not had them before, but they look amazing.

Hi! I am now following your blog from alphabet thursday. Thank you for your visit to my blog. Ever since I watched the movie fried green tomatoes I have wanted to make these! I actually have a few small green ones still on the vine, so I will just have to make these as my afternoon snack! Not enough to share, but I want them all to myself anyway! All the best, Alex@amoderatelife
Lorraine Not Quite Nigella says
I love these too! My sister in lw gifted me with some green tomatoes and I did this exactly! 🙂 I think I also made a milk gravy too which was nice.
Su-sieee! Mac says
I like fried green tomatoes. A lot. I’ve never thought about using bread crumbs. Must try that. For the longest time, I thought there was actually a species of green tomatoes that I had to use. Duh!
Cheryl says
You actually make these look delicious with those great photos. Maybe someday I’ll give ’em a try ~ as long as someone else cooks ’em!
Maria@PersonalizedSketches says
YUMMY! Loving fried green tomatoes! Part of southern tradition :o) First ate some in Alabama years ago…if not made at home, living in southern Georgia, we can order them…right along side the deep fried pickles :o)
Blessings & Aloha!
Once again…I’m behind, but catching up on blog reading…hope you have some time to stop by mine.
