Green Tomato Holiday Cake. If you grow tomatoes and have ones left over that did not finish ripening during the season, get them picked before the

hard freeze. Use in a recipe like this. I call it Holiday because of the green and I add dried cherries (a little red), and there is already a Jesus cake. It's a flexible recipe, very thick, and there are a number out there to pick from. I substitute applesauce for the butter and cut the sugar. Use your own choice of dry sweetners. Moist spice cakey.

There is none left after yesterday's brunch, so no picture of it this time.

You could make red tomato cake too.

Or fried green tomato and shrimp remoulade po boys, recipe. If you can't or do not wish to eat shellfish, then substitue something else, like avacado.








Or can up some green tomato chutney.
