muff528 3 #8 August 15, 2009 Quote Mine are still Green Y'all Brits never hear'd of fried green duh-maters? I was driving around aimlessly this morning and found myself in Tampa. While I was there I had to stop by Cacciatore's and pick up a pound and a half of pecorino romano. I stopped at a bakery and bought a couple of loaves of cuban bread. By the time I got home half a loaf of bread and at least a quarter pound of the cheese were gone. A couple of tomato slices and a little basil would have made a nice sammich. Think I'll make me one for dinner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VanillaSkyGirl 6 #9 August 15, 2009 Mmm...I've done that. My favorite way is to slice the tomatoe all the way through (circle cut slices) from end to end and add salt, pepper & lemon/lime juice. Mmmmmm... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
usedtajump 1 #10 August 15, 2009 We have so many tomatoes in our garden that we're going to start canning them to keep them from going to waste. It's been a bountiful year in the garden. The older I get the less I care who I piss off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLFXpert 0 #13 August 15, 2009 Quote Oooh, oooh! Fried, green tomatoes. YUMMY!! My favorite! With a sweet-spicey pepper sauce. No comparison! I encourage people to play with spices, herbs & peppers. I can create a "buffalo-style" seasoning/sauce for just about anything and it be completely vegan but not lacking in satisfaction. Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

Hell no, I just remember some trivia about it in the local newspaper.

PLFXpert 0 #23 August 16, 2009 One of my FAVORITE snack dishes is a salsa fresca with cilantro: In a large bowl combine two eight-ounce packages cherry tomatoes (preferrably organic)--halved or quartered if large, 1/2 finely chopped, small red onion, 1 chopped small green bell pepper, 1 minced serrano chili, 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro (preferrable organic), 1/3 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, and 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil. Toss. I eat it as is. Some people use it as a topping for a spicey white fish dish or eat alone with corn chips. SO tasty! I love tomatoes! And I love tomatillos which are in season now. Here is a great recipe from one of my favorite chefs, Rick Bayless, for a tomatillo salsa.Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Replace the Romano with soft Mozzarella (from Fiore's (www.fioresdeli.com/) in Hoboken, NJ please), then add a bit of extra virgin to the bread/tomato/basil, & I'm there!
