Fried green tomatoes

A real southern tradition. I also made cornbread and salsa ranch dressing - they were delicious!

Recipe:
Cut green tomatoes in thick slices (about one half inch), dip in cornmeal, add pepper and salt, fry them in vegetable oil for about 3 minutes on each side.

Salsa Ranch dressing:
Mix one half medium salsa and creamy ranch dip (*not* ranch dressing, as it is too liquid!)

Cornbread:
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil or shortening
1 1/2 cups self rising cornmeal
1 cup flour

If you like the cornbread sweet, add one tablespoon sugar.

Mix ingredients thoroughly and pour in greased 8 or 9 inch baking pan. Bake at 450 F for 20 to 25 minutes (until crust is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean). Makes about 6-8 servings.

That's it, enjoy!
