Fried Green Tomatoes
Pamela Tuckey
Double or triple this recipe as needed. Fried green tomatoes have a delicious tangy flavor to them, and are even better with buttermilk dressing or ranch dressing. Also excellent as a BLT sandwich with a twist! Just put between toasted bread spread with Hellmann’s mayonnaise, add bacon, lettuce and fried green tomatoes. Add a little powdered ranch dressing mix to the mayo to make it over the top... Yum! Or just serve as a side dish.
