My Grandmother never let ANYTHING go to waste. She used her green tomatoes (after making the usual relish, etc.) to make "Green Tomato Bread."
It's simply Zucchini Bread using the ground up flesh of the tomato (skin and scoop out the seeds before grinding) instead of zucchini. Raisins, nuts, whatever. That was Grandma...she could make anything FROM anything...sometimes it was best NOT to ask what we were eating...LOL!
I assume you have a zucchini bread recipe; if not, I think I have her Green Tomato Bread recipe someplace. The great thing is that it freezes really well, so you can make lots of loaves to eat later if you like it.
Excellent idea with that not-zucchini bread. I’ll be making two loaves today and freeze one. Thanks. We must have had the same grandmother. I learned at her knee. She’d pickle her green tomatoes and make chow-chow but we’re not fans of those. However, her tomato preserves were the best. I think I posted a long time ago about using years old preserves as the insides of “filled cookies” (old Betty Crocker book). Sort of like pop tarts but so much better and using tomato preserves is over the top.
