Fried Green- Creole Tomatoes West Texas Table Thu, 09/03/2026 - 05:57 In-page image(s) X Body There's something about late summer and a harvest full of tomatoes that makes you want to find new ways to enjoy them beyond the usual batch of salsa.

As the days begin to shorten over the Davis Mountains and gardens across Far West Texas reach their peak, ripe tomatoes are sweet, juicy and full of flavor-perfect for turning into a fresh appetizer for the entertaining table.
