Fried Green Tomatoes

I'd never had fried green tomatoes before.  I don't know why, we've grown tons of tomatoes in our garden over the last few years & never once tried them out.  But last weekend we finally did with some end of the season tomatoes from Kim & Ryan's garden.  They were delicious.  We sliced 'em up, sprinkled with salt and pepper & let that soak into them for a little while.  Then we took the slices, dipped them in milk, flour, eggs and cornmeal & fried them in a couple teaspoons of olive oil.  They were soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside, sweet yet salty.  We sprinkled a little shredded cheese on top, garnished with cilantro & called it breakfast.
