I love fried okra...like really love it!
I don't eat it very often because I am sure that it is not good for me.
I recently saw this pic on Pinterest...
It was like angels were singing when I saw the pic...totally delish!
I clicked on the link and was intrigued when I saw that it was baked and not fried!
I followed the recipe (except I left out the Cajun seasoning) and gave baked okra a try!
Toss the okra in a zip-lock baggie and pour the corn meal over the top.
Give yourself a little arm workout when you shake it up and coat the okra.
Dump it into a strainer so that the extra corn meal is removed.
Place on a baking sheet, spray with canola, and bake!
Ta-da!
I was pretty crispy and yummy!
I don't know that I'd say it was as good as fried okra but I totally felt better about eating it!
Enjoy!
