Ingredients
- Green tomatoes medium size is best
- Olive Oil
- Salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Arrange green tomatoes in a pan, either 8x8 or 9x13 depending on how many tomatoes you have.
- Drizzle olive oil on top of tomatoes and stir so they're coated with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt.
- Bake for 50 minutes, flipping half way through. Cook until tomato skins looks shriveled up, almost like the tomatoes popped. Time depends on the size of the tomatoes so more or time will be needed if they aren’t medium size.
- Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for a few days. Alternatively, you can place these in freezer bags and freeze them.
Notes
My favorite way to use is to throw them in the food processor with 1/2 cup chicken broth (or vegetable broth). Then add the mixture to a skillet, add cooked shredded chicken breast and cook for a few minutes. Now serve this on tortillas and enjoy green tomato tacos!
