The recipe is going in the cookbook, but it's basically a couple of cornmeal-battered green tomato slices paired with marinated, baked tofu and a maple-mustard sauce. I served mine on Ezekial bread, but this would be nice on a thick, hearty crusty bread as well.I've been eating these for days now. Once I'm happy with a dish, I tend to re-create it for meals day after day until I run out of ingredients or get tired of it. In this case, I finally ran out of tofu. But I'm looking forward to the next sandwich when I get some more.
By the way, I spent a wonderful Father's Day with my family followed by a lovely Summer Solstice with a few raw food friends. I have pictures, but no time to post them tonight. Expect all that tomorrow.

Hey I love fried green tomatoes. It if funny when I was younger I tried this after watching the movie with this name. My dad made it for me actually and put it in a batter and it was delicious. There is something about fried green tomatoes. Too bad I cannot find green tomatoes here. I would have to start a mini garden in that case. Thanks for stopping by earlier.
Have you ever tried to make fried green tomatoes baked instead? Just wondering because I'm not a frying kind of girl. :)

That looks awesome! I can't wait until we get fresh tomatoes up here, and I've never had fried green tomatoes, but definitely trying them this summer.
Mmm, that looks absolutely delicious. I've never had fried green tomatoes, but that may soon change!
I've never had fried green tomatoes, but that sammitch looks super yummy. I love me some tofu sammitches, especially with some fun veggies in there.
I actually don't think I've ever had a fried green tomato! I was tomato-phobic when I was younger. For shame. Yours look great!
