Brown the ground beef, then drain, and remove from the pan. Set aside. Put a tablespoon or two of the fat back in the pan and add the onions and peppers, and saute until they are starting to soften.
Add the garlic, chili powder, cumin, and coriander, and saute 1 minute. Add the red and green tomatoes, the meat, oregano, and a cup or two of water, optional. Simmer briskly, stirring often, until all the veggies are tender, about 1/2 hour.
This can also be made with 1 lb of bite size beef stew meat. It's really good this way, but don't remove the beef from the pan when you add the veggies, and cook it for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until the beef is tender.

I am looking for a green tomato pickle recipe. Basic canning for pickled green tomatoes New to this site so any help would be great. Thanks
Slice 5 to 6 green tomatoes. Place the green tomatoes in milk and soak for one hour or more.
This is what my grandmother made to use up green tomatoes at the end of the season.
I have tons of green tomatoes; when I was a kid I remember going to the deli with my dad and grabbing a big green dill pickled tomato from a big wooden barrel. I tried to pickle some a few years ago, but they didn't work too well. They were mushy and very tasty. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Purchase a bag of pickling lime and follow the directions for the green tomato pickles. This is the very best recipe. The pickled tomatoes are crisp and delish! Good luck.
Does anyone have a recipe for freezing green tomatoes? I want to batter them and freeze them? Thanks.
By Diane from Edgefield, SC
I batter mine as if going to fry and put on a baking sheet lined with wax paper and froze them. When frozen, I put in ziplock bag.
I tried that last year. They froze well but, they didn't fry up well. Turned to mush. I really wanted it to work, too.
Slice green tomatos about 1\8 inch slices. Place flat on countertop or prep table, salt well with shaker on both sides. Coat both sides of tomatos with flour, and place on cookie sheet about 1/4 inch apart.
Place in freezer for 30-45 minutes. Then put into ziplock freezer bag and return to freezer for later use. Note- Do not thaw for frying. Heat oil or shortening before removing from freezer. Place into oil as soon as removed from freezer 1 slice at a time so oil temp is stable.

Are you supposed to use tomatoes that have not turned red yet, or are there tomatoes that stay green?
To me, friend green tomatoes are the best way to eat green 'un's! Slice the tom's about 1/2 inch thick and dry on paper towels, mix cornmeal and flour with some salt & pepper or whatever spices you like, dip toms into a beaten egg and then coat with the meal mixture {or plain panko} and fry in a little peanut oil.
