Now don't give me that sound the Scrubbing Bubbles commercial plays, "
ewwwww". Some people just do not like okra but have they ever give
n it a try? Okra has a lot of nutritional value. Rich source of
dietary fiber, it aides in
digestion,
source of
Vitamin A and
Vitamin C, rich in
B-Complex vitamins and it is the green vegetable with the
highest levels of anti-oxidants. Those reasons alone should be enough to eat a daily serving of okra. It can be used in soups, gumbo, pickled and of course as we Southerners prefer it ... fried! So before turning up your nose and saying "
ewwwww" give it a try ... you just might find out it's not as bad as you thought. ~ Chef Wilkinson ~
