Move Over Paula Deen (Fried Green tomatoes)
Fried green tomatoes.
Never ate one in my life until we moved to the South!
My friend Laurian, whom I have talked about before..HERE
is one fabulous cook!
She often wants to teach me some of her recipes, however, I decline!
You know why?
Some things are best left up to the experts!
Let me share with you just a light meal she whipped up for us last night.
I just love the vibrant green of these tomatoes!
I believe this is flour and seasoned cornmeal!
Very light on the oil as you can see...NOT!
of course a very old cast iron pan.
This puppy was HOT HOT HOT!
Let me just explain this burger..
vidalia onion flavored burger...
caramelized onion, and I do believe she added sugar to the mix...
fried green tomatoes,
Dukes mayonnaise, provolone cheese on a toasted bun.
GONE in just a few seconds...
memories will last a life time on this burger, let me tell ya!
Cheesy potatoes on the side..
Delicious double chocolate cake for dessert.
Fresh Watermelon, frozen watermelon..which I did not get a picture..
This is Laurian's cutie pie...he and Jack met in Kindergarten and now going into 5th grade...
BOOO HOOO!
The evening could not have been better.
Thanks Laurian, you are the best!~
XO
See you all tomorrow night for the newbie party!

That sounds like a great meal full of yum for the tastebuds. Love fried green tomatoes, but have never made them myself.
I LOVE fried green tomatoes. We have a little place in town that serves'M up.. and they are DIVINE!
o boy now i want to make those iam starving:)
I love fried green tomatoes!! (The movie wasn't bad either!) But I've never thought to try them on a burger. Hhhmmmm, sounds like something we'll be trying very soon here in our "diner". Enjoy your Saturday.
Lookin' good Debbie.
I have always fried tomatoes in a skillet. However, this summer, while J was deep frying fish at the lake, he breaded green tomato slices and deep fried them. So good with the fish!
Looks like your friend made one deeee-licious meal! (and that's coming from a girl who doesn't like tomatoes)
YUM!!!! This looks absolutely divine, and I think there may still be a few green tomatoes in what is left of my garden. Hmmmm.....
Oh it all sounds and looks delicious. I would love some. Some people are just the best cooks. Hugs, Marty
I think I gained 10 lbs. just looking at that burger. :-D I have eaten fried green tomatoes that I have liked and some not so much.
Enjoy your weekend.
I've never made these but have had them in restaurants. Yum!! Love the picture of you both!
XO,

I've always wanted to give those a try, they look so yummy! Sounds like a fun night with friends and I love your little feathers in your hair. Too cute!

Great mouthwatering pictures...but I haven't got the nerve to try that either, actually I've never fried anything before...Paula Deen would not want to be my friend

I hate fried green tomatoes last night as well. I did a little egg and milk dip first then mixed a little corn meal with the flour. I think the secret is to have deep oil and have it really hot. Turn once. I added a little bacon drippens to the oils as well, couldn't help my self. Ate till I was sick. Thanks for sharing, Richard at My Old Historic House.
I have never had fried green tomatoes, but I will try them soon!
just beautiful photos and what a cute pair you two are,, so pretty!
Yum, Fried Green Tomatoes are one of my favorite foods! Right now, having them at least once a week! Welcom to the south.

Looks yummy! Haven't ever made them, but since we have a whole mess of tomatoes in the garden...hmmm....I wonder if Tim would make them.
I love fried green tomatoes, but I cannot fix them at all.
My favorite, you took it a step further... Yummy
Fried green tomatoes, learn something everyday, have a great weekend
Looks absolutely heavenly!
The fried green tomatoes sound yummy. I have not made them in years but we love em!
Oh yum! I've always wanted to try fried green tomatoes ever since reading the book and seeing the movie. I definitely should make some. Those burgers look delish! Thanks for sharing.
Oh that looks good! I was weeding the garden today and a green tomato fell off. I though I'd try and fry it up. I've never done it either. But then I forgot it was down there and stepped right on it! Ugh, I will wait for some ore to get bigger to try it out.
Nothing like them! I have family back east and down south and the first time I had them, an uncle made them for me. They are yummy!!! Never had them on a burger though.
OH my gosh...it's 11:15 at night and your beautiful photos have got me starving, girl! That's one delicious looking meal!
