Oven Roasted Okra
As most of you have seen recently our garden is growing with abundance and so is our neighbor’s garden. He is gladly giving us some of his produce too, so I have been trying to come up with all sorts of ways to use up the produce.
I have a ton of okra, but I am trying to avoid frying okra, which let’s face it…I love it fried. I have opted not to eat fried okra since going gluten free plus trying to eat healthy during this pregnancy. So, what to do? Roast it!
Roasting okra is so simple, I could eat it like candy! This can also be done by wrapping it in foil and throwing it on the grill for a few minutes if you want to avoid using the oven.

Ingredients
Steps
- 1
Preheat oven to 400*.
- 2
On a large cookie sheet, spray it with non stick spray.

In a bowl, mix up the okra, olive oil, and garlic. I make sure to use enough olive oil and garlic to coat the okra well.
- 4
Pour the okra evenly on the cookie sheet trying not to put any on top of each other.

Let this bake for 30 minutes or until browned. Add salt and pepper if you would like to taste.
