Fried green tomatoes are super easy to make as well as the remoulade sauce. They pair well together and the flavors are so good!! These recipes are the perfect addition to any Southern Cajun meal! Enjoy!!

    Fried green tomatoes? Never tried them. Saw the movie a few years ago. Nevertheless, they look good.

    I love fried green tomatoes and I order them whenever I go to a restaurant that has them on the menu, but I've never made them. Maybe I'll give your recipe a try. Thanks!
