Bacon and Okra Rice
A great side if you need to save time. Starch and vegies in one pot. It's a family favorite from Joie Warners' "All the best rice" but I have tweeked it up a little bit more to my teams tastes.

DIRECTIONS
- Slice your okra if you have to. Frozen sliced okra works in a most awsome way.
- Dice your bacon and brown it on medium heat.
- add okra, rice,and basil and stir to coat with oil.
- Add stock, hot sauce (I prefer Sriracha, the wife's a crystal fan), and salt and bring to a boil.
- Cover and let cook on low for 20 minute or so.
- When rice is done let it set for 5 min uncovered then fluff and serve.
