Roasted Okra

Roasted Okra! Roasting veggies is my favorite because it brings out such great flavors, and okra is adds some shock-and-awe because most of us have only had it fried in mass-produced, sad-battered chunks. 😞 But not anymore!

Drizzle olive oil on clean, dry whole okra (found at farmers markets or even most grocery stores), then sprinkle with some sea salt. If you're feeling festive, add garlic and Italian seasonings as well. 

Then roast for about 30 minutes at 400 degrees, tossing once somewhere in there (I often forget this and it still turns out great 😉). You can grate some Parmesan or goat cheese over the top, or just serve plain. I often take left overs for a snack at work and just eat them cold. So good! Try it and let me know how much you love it! ❤️ 

What other veggies do you love this time of year?

"Worship is the submission of all of our nature to God. It is the quickening of the conscience by his holiness; the nourishment of mind with his truth; the purifying of imagination by his beauty; the opening of the heart to his love; the surrender of will to his purpose -- all this gathered up in adoration, the most selfless emotion of which our nature is capable." ~William Temple
