Tomatillo and/or Apple Crisp

What a great surprise that you can use tomatillos in a sweet crisp! This is the recipe that Rachel used for the CSA cooking demo years ago and we all loved it. The recipe works best if you have a combo of both tomatillos and apples but you can use either one successfully. You can also use green tomatoes for this recipe! Try substituting a portion of the apple in your favorite recipe with tomatillos or green tomatoes and let us know what you think!
