Green Tomato Fritters


 Does anything say "Summer" better than tomatoes from your garden?


The plants I purchased this year started producing when they were surprisingly small.  Wanting them to be more robust, many green tomatoes have been harvested.  Here's my recipe for a quick, delicious summertime side dish, using my air fryer.  If air fryers aren't you, a skillet works well, too!  You'll need more cooking oil.


Green Tomato Fritters

4 cups Coarsely Chopped Green Tomatoes

1/4 cup Yellow Corn Meal

1/4 cup Self Rising Flour

1 Egg

1 - 2 tablespoons Water

1 teaspoon Cajun Spices

Salt to taste

1 tablespoon Cooking Oil for Air Fryer

Prepare a liner for Air Fryer using parchment paper.  Remove liner and pre-heat air fryer.  Mix everything together except the green tomatoes and oil.  Blend batter until well combined and all lumps are gone.  Add Green Tomatoes, gently stir, making sure all pieces are coated.

Add oil to pre heated air fryer and place the liner into the basket.  Dump entire green tomato mixture into air fryer.  Cook on french fry setting, flipping halfway thru cooking time.  Once done, it will be crispy on the edges and soft in the middle.  Break the block into bite size pieces.

Have you ever been enjoying a nice, quiet day of crafting, then BAM your jar of ModPodge falls off the table, splatters across the floor, and onto one of your favorite toss blankets?  Well, that happened to me right in the middle of this project.  Talk about a big, sticky mess!  Not to worry, though.  We have hardwood floors.  First, a dish towel was used to mop up most of the glops.  I had the thought to use rug cleaner on the afghan and also sprayed foam across the glue swirls on my floor.  The toss blanket made a round in my washing machine and came out unscathed.  A quick wet mop restored my hardwood floors.  Now, back to my nice quiet day of crafting.

Friendsmas celebrations are such a wonderful way to spend an evening with girlfriends!  The plan for this year's party, besides snacks, is for each person to bring a $10 gift and we will swap.  It's nice to have a small something for everyone, though, so this is what I'm adding to the mix. Fizzy Soaking Salts!

This project has already failed twice.  TWICE!   Originally, I wanted to create a sustainable gazing ball that could be used for many seasons.  A beautiful glass gazing ball has been purchased for my garden every year and every year something happens to break it.  There has to be a better way!
