Mardi Party Gras Recipe Spicy Okra Creole

This weekend cook spicy and cajun. I'm getting ready for Mardi Gras. Since I won't be in New Orleans, I will have to bring New Orleans to my kitchen. I can try (laugh).  I'm not a big fan of okra unless it is in something ultra spicy and saucy.

INGREDIENTS

• 3 bacon slices
• 1 (16-ounce) package frozen sliced okra
• 1 (14.5-ounce) can chopped tomatoes
• 1 cup frozen onion seasoning blend
• 1 cup frozen corn kernels
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• Brown Rice- Cooked

1. Cook bacon in a Dutch oven until crisp; remove bacon, and drain on paper towels, reserving drippings. Crumble bacon, and set aside.
2. Cook okra and next 6 ingredients in hot drippings in Dutch oven over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 15 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Top with crumbled bacon. Serve over rice, if desired.
