These vegetables really sing when used together in this dish with the addition of onion and garlic. Okra and tomatoes go perfectly with just about any meal you are serving – from grilled or roasted chicken to roast beef, pork or fish. It all works. Here’s how I make my Okra and Tomatoes recipe. I hope you love it! Enjoy!
