Tips & Techniques

  • High Altitude (3500-6500 ft):

    In step 2, increase simmer time to 8 to 10 minutes.

  • Health Focus

    Slash a little fat by trying turkey bacon. It has the same smoky flavor as pork bacon but much less fat. One slice of regular bacon weighs in at about 6 grams of fat per slice versus turkey bacon at roughly 1/2 gram of fat per slice.

Ingredients

  • 4  slices bacon
  • 1  cup coarsely chopped onion (1 large)
  • 2  cups diced tomatoes (from 28-oz can), undrained
  • 2  cans (15.25 oz each) Green Giant® whole kernel corn, drained
  • 2 1/2  cups frozen cut okra (from 1-lb bag)
  • 1  teaspoon seasoned salt
  • 1/4  teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2  teaspoon hot pepper sauce

Directions

  1. 1In 12-inch skillet, cook bacon over low heat 8 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until crisp. Drain on paper towels. Crumble bacon; set aside. Reserve 1 tablespoon bacon drippings in skillet.
  2. 2Cook onion in bacon drippings over medium heat 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Stir in remaining ingredients except bacon. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until okra is tender. Sprinkle with bacon.
