Baked Green Tomatoes

by Leave a Comment

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.
