Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup fat-free mayonnaise
  • 1/4 teaspoon grated lime zest
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper, divided
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large egg whites, lightly beaten
  • 3/4 cup cornmeal
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 medium green tomatoes
  • 2 medium red tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
