We have a special challenge with growing tomatoes in Minnesota. There is often a profusion of green tomatoes left on the vine as the cold weather sets in and a forced harvest is in order. They should not be abandoned because there are dishes you can use them in.

Deja Vu

Last year, I made this delicious Roasted Green Tomatoes with Sweet Peppers Salsa with green Mortgage Lifter tomatoes that did not have sufficient time to ripen. Having learnt my lesson, I decided to plant fast-growing cherry tomatoes this year but I still ran into the same problem. Towards the end of October when night time temperatures dipped into the 30’s and 40’s, I had to harvest everything except for the carrots from the vegetable garden.

I brought in 3¼ pounds of red and green cherry tomatoes. The were more green than red. I made a Roasted Cherry Tomatoes salad with the red ones and used some of the greens ones in today’s Green Tomato Tart inspired by this recipe.

The Crust for This Green Tomato Tart

I used the same crust (minus the hazelnut meal) as the one I made for this Triple Berry Tart. The cheese at the base of the tart helped to insulate the crust from the tomatoes juices, preventing it from getting soggy, which was really nice. The caramelized onions gave the tart great flavor.

Toppings

As a finishing touch, I sprinkled the top with feta and freshly picked mint leaves from the garden. This was of course back in October when my mint was growing abundantly. No chance of that happening right now as the ground is completely covered in snow. Basil may be used as an alternative.

Red Cherry Tomatoes as a Substitute

You can definitely used red cherry tomatoes from the grocery store as a substitute for green cherry tomatoes. In fact, I think this tart will be the perfect for your holiday table with red, green, and white colors. I hope you’ll give it a try.
