So many tomatoes, but not a single one is turning red yet. That's ok...we are starting a new summer tradition here on the homestead...first big green tomatoes of the season are harvested to make several batches of good ol' fashioned fried green tomatoes. The kids love helping me dip them and everyone gobbles them right up. It's that first real taste of all the goodness that the summer garden will bring!

2 large green tomatoes sliced 1/4 inch
Bowl #1:
