2-3 weeks ago we had the first freeze so harvested all the tomatoes. As they ripen, into the freezer they go but had some green ones that were starting to look sad before they ripened so tried out a Green Tomato Pie for Christmas. The recipe needs some tweaking but everyone said it worked so the idea is a keeper. I’m thinking maybe a handful of raisins or a bit more spice would do the trick. It’s similar to tomato preserves and mince meat.

Green Tomato Pie - 3 cups green tomatoes, 1 1/2 C sugar, 1 T cider vinegar, all spice, cinnamon, salt and a pie shell.

Needing to get the new tomato and pepper seeds started today!

The pie sounds good. It’s a little early for starting plants indoors here. However, I do think I might use some milk jugs to get started on the winter sown for some of the seeds.
