It's always fun to take advantage of vegetables that are just in season and fresh okra should be in abundance at your supermarket or in your garden. Okra gets a bad rap many times because of the "slime factor". Most times it's relegated to be a thickener in soups and stews, but it's hot outside, who feels like soup or stew? It's also breaded and fried, a great way to make a vegetable unhealthy, or pickled which most of us don't have the time or resources to do.
