Well, last night I made the recipie from the Tennessean. (This is an actual photo of BB's first legitimate attempt at making fried green tomatoes!) I had to make a few adjustments to accomodate ingredients I didn't have in the cupboard, but they turned out mighty fine. I'll definitely be making them again.
In fact, I'm eating the left-overs for lunch RIGHT NOW.
MmmmMMMMmmmGOOD.

I also made these for the first time last year as sort of a rite of passage into southern living. Yours look like they turned out great!
My absolute favorite fried vegetable is fried pickles. Why do they fry everything in the south? Do we know? Laura would probably know, after all she is fixin' supper.
They were very yummy. I think we should have a FGT party. We'll cook fried green tomatoes and watch the movie! **wink**
