Fried Green Tomatoes

Fried Green Tomatoes are relatively new to me, but the first time I had them was inspiring! See the recipe that I came up with after tasting these savory little critters! I'll give you a hint: it includes savory pan fried green tomatoes, creamy cheese, crispy arugula, and a slightly sweet balsamic vinegar reduction! You'll never go back from this recipe.

Another Italian Classic! Tiramisu is a definite favorite of mine. But when I had an unbarable craving to make some but couldn't find the right type of cheese most recipes use to make it, I got frustrated and hacked together this simple recipe which substitues cream cheese instead of the traditional mascapone. The result is easy to make and will satisfy both the coffee lovers and haters a like!
