I got this recipe from my friend last summer when we both had a ton of tomatoes in the garden. Other than the usual kootu I did not have many recipes with raw tomatoes and was thrilled to know about this bread. Nobody would even guess that the bread has green tomatoes .The bread was moist and the chocolate chips added the right amount of sweetness. I am planning to replace green tomatoes with strawberries since they are in season now. Will update this post when I do so. Off to the recipe. Recipe adapted from here.
