that is a great idea to freeze them, thanks for your tip

Another tip; if you want green tomatoes all year long, this is what I do. I pick the tomatoes still green bring them in and wash them. I then proceed to slice them as if I am getting ready to cook them. Put them on a cookie sheet and put into the freezer. Once frozen take off cookie sheet and put into ziplock bags. When ready to fry some up, do not let the tomato thaw out, just take out of freezer and put into you flour (or what ever you are using to coat them) Put into the skillet and they taste just the same. I still have a couple of bags in the freezer I haven't ate yet. Might just go fry me up some for breakfast. YUM-YUM!

Here you go - Green Tomato Mincemeat

Grind 1 peck green tomatoes, drain off juice and add as much water as there was juice.
Add:
4 lbs. sugar
2 lbs. raisins
2 Tablespoons cloves
2 Tablespoons cinnamon
2 Tablespoons allspice
2 Tablespoons salt
1 cup vinegar (I use 1/2 vinegar & 1/2 water)
6 sour apples ground or finely chopped

Boil until thick and can in glass jars.

Also have recipe for Sweet Green Tomato Pickles if you are interested.

I do all you do BUT one thing..... I put them under the boiler!!
NO Grease..... I spray them with the butter spray[WM Brand with yellow lid] after I put them in the cornmeal....
I froze mine for yrs too...
I also do this to squash and zucchini.....

I take the sliced green tomatoes and soak them in Buttermilk for 20 minutes then dip them in flour on both sides fry them in Canola Oil and/or Extra Virgin Olive Oil. They are yummy!! I will have to try freezing them, never done that.
