    Classic Southern Cuisine

    Here at Bubba Pie, we love simple, honest comfort food. And, when you look to the southern US, it’s not hard to find these recipes. From Southern Bread Pudding and Black Eyed Peas, to Arkansas Green Beans, the south serves up some delicious dishes that have been passed down through the generations.

    But what this site has been missing is a nice, creole and cajun recipe. We have a Cajun restaurant down the street that I absolutely LOVE. So, it’s amazing we haven’t made our own versions of some of this tasty cuisine!

    Well, that ends today! Today we are going to share this recipe for Smothered Okra!

    Smothered Okra Ingredients include tomatoes, garlic and onions.

    Smothered Okra

    If you look at other recipes, you’ll usually find Smothered Okra paired with a meat like sausage, chicken or shrimp. But we wanted to offer up a vegetarian version of this dish. But, if you want to add a meat of your choice, you can easily do that!

    We love this recipe because it is so affordable to make. Seriously, all you need is:

    • 2 pounds okra, sliced
    • 2 teaspoons Creole seasoning
    • 2 small onions, chopped
    • 3 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 10-ounce can diced tomatoes
    • 1/3 cup vegetable oil

    This smothered okra may be one of the least expensive recipes to make we have posted on this site!

    We hope you enjoy this recipe. Keep checking back for more easy comfort food dishes! Thanks for reading!
