Oven Fried Green Tomatoes

Fried Green Tomatoes are a staple in the homes of most Southerners!  This dish is the perfect appetizer or snack!  Not to mention that they contain half the fat and calories in a traditional fried green tomato recipe!!

I absolutely LOVE fried green tomatoes! I can eat them for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack, fourth meal, etc…lol! Even though I love this dish, I don’t always love the extra fat and calories that come from frying the tomatoes in copious amounts of oil! My version of fried green tomatoes provides the same great taste and flavor without compromising your waistline!
