  1. Yum Yum! This was delicious and a good way to use the okra we had rather than frying. I used hot sausage and that gave it an extra kick, which I loved but was a little too hot for the hubby! Will definitely be making this one again.
     
  2. ok i switched this up alittle bit veggie wise - to suit my familys tastes... i used green, red and yellow bell peppers, a bag of frozen corn, greenbeans, peas, and baby carrots, and the called for onion and i accidentally bought diced tomatoes with green chilis.. oh well.. ole! lol I used two boxes of jiffy mix - and def needed 25 minutes because at 20 the topping was still alittle uncooked... i put hot pork sausage on 1/3 of it and just hamburger on the other side - hence my foil devider in the pics.... I had enough topping to almost cover the whole top, and i just put big glops spaced out over the whole pan.. all and all a pretty good recipe
     
  3. This is so very delicious! Hubby requested that I make it at least once a week from now on! I used Jiffy cornbread mix for the topping. I only baked mine for 20 minutes and it was definitely golden brown by that point. Thanks for real keeper SusieQusie!!
     
  4. I loved this and DBF was quite happy with it too. I only used a little okra in half the dish because it was our first experience with the vegetable and I wasn't sure if we would like it. But we ended up liking it, so I will probably use the whole portion next time. I used a cornbread mix and I spread the cornbread over the whole top, which we definitely liked. I think the cooking time was a little long for my cornbread mix. The package suggested 18-20 minutes, but I baked the casserole for 25 minutes based on the directions here. The topping was definitely golden brown at that point, although thankfully not burned! I think next time I will follow the baking directions for the cornbread since the oven doesn't seem to be necessary for the cooking of the casserole innards, just the topping. I will definitely be making this again. I will probably wait until it isn't 85 degrees out though! Thanks SQ!
