Good -- will make again. I think that this recipe will make a good base that can be modified based on whatever veggies I happen to have in the house.

This was good. I did add some creole seasoning based on other reviews that it was a little bland. I also served this over rice.

I thought this was a really great okra dish. I did add about a tablespoon of butter, though (my bacon didn't produce a whole lot of grease). I also used a whole green pepper and NO celery. Yum!

I used fresh okra and whole tomatoes in sauce because that's all I had. I added some creole seasoning as someone suggested and didn't use bacon. It was great!! Can't wait to get more okra.

This is one of my favorite recipes. I make this dish often in the summer when we have okra from the garden and I use frozen okra in the winter.

Absolutely yummy & a great way to use frozen okra. The best thing about recipes like this is how adaptable they are. For example, if one wanted more spice, Rotel tomatoes could be used instead of stewed tomatoes. I personally don't ever have stewed tomatoes on hand & cut up a can of whole tomatoes instead. The true secret to this recipe is sauteeing the okra and veggies in the bacon drippings - delicious!

I love this recipe! 14.5 oz of tomatoes didn't seem like very much once I had the veggies chopped; luckily I had another can so I added that. I also only used 1/2 the amount of okra and it was more than enough. I recommend Del Monte brand stewed tomatoes, Cajun Recipe. It adds a nice hint of spice :) As other reviews suggested, I served this with white rice for a bigger meal. I will be making this again!

This is very good. Plain, it's just so-so, but over rice, it's delicious.

This is good but it needs more tomatoes and more flavor. I used some worcestershire sauce.

I fixed this dish this evening with a few modifications and everyone but the babies cleaned his plate. I used fresh okra, doubled the tomato, added some leftover polish sausage and a bit of crushed pepper. We served it over flavored white rice and ate every last bite.

Very easy, quick, and tasty! :) I was a little skeptical at first, but this turned out to be a great recipe for okra. I don't like celery so I omitted the celery and used 1 bell pepper instead. Also, I added some garlic powder, paprika, and a small amount of cayenne pepper. I used canola oil for sauteeing instead of bacon grease (I omitted the bacon altogether to make it more healthy). The result was very yummy! And we didn't have a problem with the "slime" normally associated with okra -- maybe sauteeing the okra took care of this. I will definitely make this again.

Super!!! A+++ If I could give it more stars, I would. I didn't realize okra could taste this good w/out being deep fried. I added green chilies because we like food a little more spicy. AWESOME!!

Very good! I used olive oil instead of bacon and spiced it up with Creole Seasoning. My family likes it spicy! It was wonderful! I would definately make it again.
