I love the ninemsn recipe finder :)
Have you ever seen the movie Fried Green Tomatoes (Jessica Tandy, Kathy Bates)? They seemed to be sliced, then crumbed or battered and fried. Eaten by hand like cookies.
Go to Google, type in "green tomato recipes" and I am sure millions will come up in seconds.
Good luck.
