While I do know (Jessie told me) that FGT are normally FALL fare, I've only ever had them at the beginning of summer. So, they are the taste of summer for ME. :)
And YOU are SO blessed today because I'm going to share Jessie's recipe for FGT right here! ^_^

Club crackers (at least 1 box for about 6 med. sized tomatoes)
