The tomatoes are still coming in here at The Compound, but the majority are green. Not being ones to waste any of the bounty, we decided we'd make some green tomato relish. The 'Rents canned 12 pints today, and I am here to tell you it was awesome. We had some tonight on hot dogs and I think I could have ate a stick if it had some of the green tomato relish on it. So I felt compelled to share the recipe with you.
