COMFORTING OVEN-FRIED OKRA, SQUASH, AND ONION
What a great way to "fry" some veggies. I loved the combination of veggies and did add the potatoes. The seasonings enhance the flavor of the fresh veggies and the cornmeal/flour coating is great. Can't wait to make this again!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- 2. Be sure to use the freshest ingredients. Add each chopped vegetable ingredient into bowl for mixing.
- 3. Salt, garlic powder, and pepper vegetables and stir. Throw in flour on top of vegetables, then corn meal.
- 4. If the vegetables aren't sufficiently covered upon stirring, you may add more flour one tablespoon at a time until it's all covered.
- 5. Place aluminum foil, shiny side up, in a sheet pan. Spray with Pam cooking spray. Remove vegetable mixture from bowl with hands and spread onto the foil in a thin layer. If there is any loose flour in the bowl, dump it into the trash instead of onto the pan.
- 6. Spray the top of the breaded vegetables with Pam.
- 7. Place into the preheated oven and bake at 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until brown. I stir them around about 10 minutes before they finish cooking to crispen them up better on all sides.
- 8. Remove from oven and serve immediately. This is good fried on the stove top also, but if you are like my family, you may be cutting back on fried foods. This is a good way to eat nice comfort foods without consuming large amounts of unhealthy fats.
SQUASH AND POTATOES
My German grandmother taught me to cook, and she used bacon drippings in almost every recipe, even cookies! I happened upon this concoction one summer Sunday afternoon when our neighbors gave us a bumper crop of vegetables from their garden. Naturally I stared with grandmother's favorite ingredient...bacon!

ARKANSAS FRIED VEGGIE SKILLET
This recipe was given to me by my mother-in-law; it is so good! You can add anything else you want and it only makes it better. I recommend everyone at least give it a try! You can even add some bacon pieces. Serve with fried deer meat. You can use olive oil or vegetable oil instead of the bacon grease, if desired.

OKRA AND POTATO SALAD
To make the salad, I steam the potatoes first and, as soon as they're done, season them and toss them with a portion of the lemon juice and vinegar dressing. Then, I briefly steam and slice the trimmed okra and toss everything together. It tastes like a creamy potato salad with a garlicky Mediterranean accent.

Steps:
- Mix together lemon juice and vinegar in a small bowl.

BLONDIE'S~FRIED SQUASH, OKRA & POTATOES
I ate this at a friend's house several years ago, and I've been making it ever since. The ratios of veggies can be how ever you like them. Mine changes depending what I have on hand. They make a great side for any Southern entree. In season serve some ripe thick-sliced tomatoes on the side...YUMMMMY!
