What should I do with approx. 6 Lbs of green tomatoes? I'm in Dallas and an impending freeze is threatening our fall tomato crop. I have no choice but to pick all my unripened fruit? Any suggestions?

You can also substitute green tomatoes for cucumbers in just about any pickle recipe; I prefer them to cukes in bread & butter pickles.
Or slice them thinly and use them as you would zucchini in gratins. I made a gratin with green tomato and caramelized onion topped with breadcrumbs and parmesan that was quite tasty. You'd probably want something with a sweet or creamy note to offset the tartness of the tomatoes.
