What to do with all the Green Tomatoes … Fried Green Tomatoes

November 8, 2015 · by Carrie Trax ·

Fried Green TomatoesWhat to do with some of the green tomatoes you picked at the end of season that might still be hanging around your house?  Coated with a crispy cornmeal and panko crumb mix these fried green tomatoes are the perfect treat to serve as a side dish or topped on a burger.

Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten with 1 tablespoon water
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1/2 cup panko crumbs
1/4 teaspoon paprika
oil for frying

Liberally season green tomato slices with salt and pepper on both sides. Place flour and egg mixture into two separate small bowls.  Combine cornmeal, panko crumbs and paprika into another small bowl and whisk together. Begin by dipping each seasoned tomato slice into flour coating on both sides. Next add floured tomato slice to eggs coating on both sides. Lastly dip into cornmeal and crumb mixture and set aside finished slice on baking sheet. Repeat dredging process, starting with flour, until all slices are coated. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium high heat. Fry tomato slices on both sides until golden brown and drain on paper towels. Serve warm.

B “S” T Egg Salad Sandwich

March 31, 2015 · by Carrie Trax ·

2015.03.28@13.30.54._K5I0001I am putting the “S” or spinach in the traditional “B”acon “L”ettuce “T”omato egg sandwich.  With Easter coming there will be some extra hard boiled eggs in my refrigerator perfect for egg salad.  In my egg salad recipe I add some crisp bacon to add a little extra flavor.  This open face sandwich is served on grilled bread layered with fresh baby spinach, sliced tomatoes, egg salad and topped with pieces of crisp bacon.

Bacon Spinach Tomato Egg Salad Sandwich2015.03.28@12.55.10._K5I99512015.03.28@13.01.16._K5I9962
6 hard boiled eggs, peeled
1/2 cup Miracle Whip or mayonnaise
3 slices bacon, cooked crispy, divided
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
4 large slices french bread
butter
1 cup fresh spinach
2 tomatoes, sliced

In a medium bowl place the hard boiled eggs.  With a pastry blender (My favorite kitchen tool) chop eggs into small pieces.  Add Miracle Whip or mayonnaise, 2 slices of bacon that has been chopped into small pieces, salt and ground pepper.  Mix until combined.

Preheat a flat top grill or skillet.  Butter both sides of the bread and cook until lightly brown on both sides.  To assemble sandwiches place each piece of bread on a plate.  On each piece of bread layer a 1/4 cup of spinach, 3 slices of tomatoe and 1/4th of the egg salad.  Chop the last piece of bacon into small pieces and sprinkle on each sandwich.
