Overwhelmed by all the green cherry tomatoes your garden is giving you? Try this recipe. Green cherry (or grape) tomatoes well seasoned with rosemary lots and lots of garlic and heat from Serrano's! I used most green with a few almost red and red ones for color. The red may burst because of the ripe softer fruit. I choose Serrano's for the heat but if you milder go for jalapenos or spicier go for a habanero. Garnish a bloody Mary or a vodka martini with a couple of these! ;) Ingredients:
10 cups green tomatoes or 10 cups red cherry tomatoes, washed |
1 large sweet onion, 2 cups diced |
2 serrano chilies, seeded and minced |
