But, we decided to break the "paula dean now has diabetes" mold and eat HEALTHY! What a brilliant idea.
Well Okra was on sale at our local market so we figured we would give it a go!
We used our handy dandy steamer. just add some water to the bottom of a pot and drop in your steaming device and heat up the water.
Place the Okra in for anywhere from 4-6 minutes depending on how much and the size of your okra. If you have a few pieces larger than the others, place those in a minute or so before the rest!
Remove the okra, and we sprinkled with lemon juice and a touch of sea salt and chili powder.
Let me tell you it was mouth watering goodness!
I have no idea why people waste such a delicious food as Okra when they fry it to an unrecognizable state of artery clogging nastiness!
So please enjoy!!!!!!!

I am apart of a food box for the summer and we get to go to the farm and pick some of our produce. Okra is coming up....I will have to try this.
In Ghana they would boil it and make Okra stew. It was supes good. I will try and find a recipe to share with you :)
