Nothing says summer like Fried Green Tomatoes. You must know that I’m absolutely obsessed with it. I never tried anything like this until last year when we moved to the South and I was hooked. Delicious! Crispy on the outside and so tender and sour on the inside, I was ordering this dish in every restaurant that offered it. But when I tried making it myself I fell in love with it even more. This healthy Baked Vegan Green Tomatoes recipe will make you eat it all summer long without the guilt. Try it with my Vegan Spicy Smoked Paprika Aioli.
