Okra, tomato and onion stuff

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Okra
¼ cup Onions
1 cup Tomatoes
4 larges Eggs
1 teaspoon Salt (I use a combination seasoned salt-it just seems to need more seasoning)
½ teaspoon Black or red pepper-really this is good with a can of chopped chilies.

Directions

My Aunt Helen was the younger Aunt-she was better educated and alittle more "uptown" as the other Aunts would comment. She became a nurse and EVEYONE was expected at her Capping-so we went. Now, this is one of favorite secrets, we would propably call it a type of simple Souffle-THE Aunts said (and Mother said it also) "Helen would not have known how to make this had she not have gone out in the world and come back with more ideas) She died in 1990-78yrs. She and my Mother died in the same Hospice room.

My husband likes lots of black pepper-you will just have to adjust to your own taste. Saute okra and onion in oleo or oil for abt 1 min. Add tomatoes (slightly beaten-I add abt 2 teaspoons milk to the eggs) salt and pepper.

Pour into well oiled pan (or sprayed) Bake at 350 for abt 20-30 mins.

Sprinkle with shredded cheese on top and return to oven til it melts a bit.

My Aunt Helen went on to be quite a more modern cook-using a lot that she learned to inspire her sisters to branch out and try other forms and types of cooking.She spent her life nursing others and died a very painful death with breast cancer. Never had herself checked, so get your checkup-it is not a pretty way to die. Tootie Best of the Southwest cooking -or we are who we came from.
