YOUR HEALTHY PLATE: TOMATOES, ONIONS, & OKRA

If you’re the kind of person who thinks about stuff like the degree of deliciousness per amount of energy required to prepare it, this recipe ranks right up there.  No kidding, this is one of the easiest recipes I’ve ever made.  Okay, it’s not as easy as eating grapes.  But close. 

Slice up a large onion with a little olive oil, and let it sizzle for a bit until the onions are getting clear. 
Toss in 3-4 chopped tomatoes, and about a cup and a half of okra (sliced in 1 inch pieces). 
The okra has to be fresh from the grocery store, but the tomatoes can be fresh or canned.
Add 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and cayenne pepper.

Let the mixture simmer on low heat for 30-40 minutes.  That’s all. 

Best of all, you can serve it hot, cold, or at room temperature.  No matter which, it’s really good.
