Fried Green Tomato Mash
Mom used to cook this concoction every summer. I still love it:
- 2 large green tomatoes (unripe)
- 1 onion
- half a green pepper
- half a pack of mushrooms, sliced.
- 5 slices of bacon.
- Salt and pepper to taste.
- a dash of herbes de provence or Italian herb mix if you like.
Cut the bacon into small squares and fry till crispy. Set the bacon aside. Drain the bacon fat that's left over, leaving a table spoon or so in the pan.
Add the veggie ingredients. Fry until everything is soft and starts to crisp a bit. Add the bacon back in, mix, and serve! Makes a great sidedish and its a great way to use your extra green tomatoes.
