Directions
African Okra Soup, A wonderful thick okra soup with bacon, corn and tomatoes!, I’m a southern girl, and I just love fresh okra This is a wonderful recipe, it was just great I like extra seasonings, so I added some garlic powder to taste Ummmmm!, Okra is one of my favorite things and I loved this soup used beef broth and I don’t think it would be the same without it Spinkled with flat parsley for a fresh flavor Straight into my okra cookbook this one goes!
