Unfried Green Tomatoes image

This recipe from Cooking Light is the perfect healthy twist on one of my favorite southern side dishes. Now I can get my "fix" without the added oil. The Fresh Tomato Gravy (1/3 cup per serving) can also be used on baked chicken, pork or fish.

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon butter
1 cup chopped mushroom
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
2 cups finely chopped peeled tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°.
  • To prepare the green tomatoes, combine flour and next 4 ingredients (flour through sugar) in a shallow dish. Dip tomato slices in milk; dredge in flour mixture. Lightly coat both sides of tomato slices with cooking spray.
