Ripen Garden Tomatoes

To ripen green garden tomatoes, put them in brown paper bags. Don't stack too many in one bag, or they might get bruised. Check them every few days and remove the ripe ones. —Delia Kennedy, Deer Park, Washington

I think she meant to write "green peppers"...

This was delicious. I used red bell pepper instead of green and added about half a TBS of hot sauce and a little salt. Both my husband and Iloved it!!

One reviewer mentioned green beans. Have I missed something? Didn't see any in the recipe.

I was pleasantly surprised! I had the ingrediants on hand so decided to try it. I had a lot of the sauce left over when done eating, so think I'll use it in another dish. We liked it very much

Would make this again! Used zuchini and squash in place of green beans. Also used black olives with jalapeno. Family liked the extra kick. mild kick but still made them say hmmm!

The flavor is great and even my toddler ate it! I wish the fish stayed in one piece...it fell completely apart. That's the only reason it didn't get five stars!
