Faith, Food on Fridays, Moms in Prayer, Southern Hospitality

The okra keeps growing in our drought here in Texas. I am wondering if I have enough recipes to start a series on Okra recipes. I have never cooked with okra till this past month as we watched it thrive and grow even with little to no water.

We cook frittatas to accommodate our gluten-free family member.                

They are easy and filling.

No oven required!

Serve at dinner or breakfast.

Whisk 6 eggs with a tbsp. of baking powder. Set aside

Saute chopped onions, garlic, and 1 cup of sliced okra.

(Pick before it is 4 inches long.)

1 c of shredded cheddar.

Pour all ingredients into a hot skillet. Reduce heat slightly,  and watch closely for about 3-4 minutes and flip over using 1 very large spatula, or two small.

Garnish with cilantro.

  We toasted a tortilla over the burner and sliced to make chips.

Dab with hot sauce and enjoy!

During Moms in Prayer this morning we all prayed that every fiery trial our child endures will serve to fortify and purify their faith…even as gold is refined by fire.

It was a great reminder to me as I toss hot sauce on my eggs each morning to focus on the beautiful faith we receive as we trust and follow His direction in our own fiery trials.

The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; The Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace. Numbers 6:24-26 NIV

Skin pumpkin just like a cantaloupe and slice in the same way.
Pour an inch of water in the bottom of a pan and toss in the sliced pumpkin.
I served with chicken breasts topped with pesto and a side dish of steamed kale doused with balsamic vinegar.

Waiting for something to grow in our lives takes patience.

Therefore, be patient brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain. You also be patient. James 5:7-8

The pumpkin picked too soon would have been bitter.

What to do while you wait?

Tell God all that is in your heart, as one unloads one’s heart to a dear friend. People who have no secrets from each other never want subjects of conversations; they do not weigh their words, because there is nothing to be kept back.                          Fenelon

Food on Fridays, Gluten-free, Southern Belle Recipes, Southern Hospitality

Over at the Southards we are enjoying all things okra.

Savor each bite packed full of nutrients.

Enjoy the company you are with fix your gaze and be curious. Celebrate that moment hearing their heart.

Wait and listen.

You simply can’t imagine what insights and the happiness you’ll experience when you catch those thoughts running ahead and capture the moment with your neighbor, your child, your spouse.

I was really focusing on my husband and just hearing what was on his mind when wala….he whipped up this dish.

Slice the okra and toss in the frying pan with a little sliced garlic.
Simmer on low and chop the remaining ingredients.
2 Texas Hill Country sausage from HEB or the local favorite.
1/2 of a sweet potato (cubed)
1 medium-sized sweet onion (chopped)
1 large handful of kale (chopped)
Saute till thoroughly cooked through
Top with 5 whipped eggs and a tablespoon of baking powder.
Bake in toaster oven till eggs are slightly golden.
Allow dish to cool and slide out of frying pan for presentation

Great gluten-free dish and looks like a Quiche after it sets up in the fridge.

Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.

1 Thessalonians 5:23-24

Homemaking, Southern Belle Recipes

We have a nice crop of okra in our garden.

Then He will send rain for your seed that you have sown in the ground, and the food, the produce of the ground, will be rich and plentiful.  Isaiah 30:29 HCSB

 

It is one of the simplest side dishes to prepare for your family or friends.

Rinse well and slice pods.

Dip in egg yolk.

Place okra in a bowl of flour with salt and pepper. (Cornmeal is a nice substitute as a  gluten-free option)

Shake bowl tossing okra liberally with flour.

Toss a drop of water in the oil to make sure it is sizzling hot.

Fry in a couple of inches of oil till golden brown ( about ten minutes).

Let okra cool slightly on newspaper before serving.

 Serve with iced tea.

Perfect summer dish.

May the peace of God be with you…

The love of Jesus enfold you…

And the Spirit of Christ fill you.
