Crumble cooked bacon over the green tomato layer, and use a milder grated cheese, maybe fontina.

This has been a staple at our parties ever since the recipe appeared 20 years ago.

I have to say I was doubtful, but this blew me away. For a quick and delicious meal, grab your favorite refrigerated dough, your green tomatoes, and trust this recipe. I did soread olive oil on the crust before adding the toppings. Simple and delish!
