A beautifully colorful Southern specialty that’ll round out any meal. You can't go wrong with the flavor combo of bacon, onions, corn, tomatoes, and okra. A dash of cayenne gives a little heat, though just 1/8 of a teaspoon can be quite spicy for some folks. Err on the side of too little since you can always add more later on. We used frozen vegetables for convenience (there's also no need to thaw!), but you can use fresh corn and okra if you prefer. The cooking time will be about the same. You can also omit the bacon for a vegetarian version.
