A great change of pace. The flavors blend well. The wife and I really liked this recipe. I followed the directions exactly. It came out perfect. I diced the bacon before I fried it. That saved some time. The next time I will add some tomatoes and some garlic. Thanks posting this recipe.

I added some cooked shrimp at the end to soak up some of the bacon and okra flavors and had a delicious main dish.

My husband and I really enjoyed this recipe.I needed a goood recipe for okra because we grow it in our garden.I only used four pices of bacon and used three cans of chicken broth insted of using the water. I also added smoked sausage for some meet. It really turned out delicious!
