You know what tastes amazing breaded and crisped. I think everything! Lets bread some okra today.

Chop up some okra in bite size pieces. Make a batter of chickpea flour and water or use other flour of choice. Make the breading with chipotle pepper, cumin, nutritional yeast or use other blends like cajun, garam masala, southern fried spice or blackening spice blend. Dip the okra in the batter, remove using a slotted spoon, coat in breadcrumb mixture and bake. Done! I think I just might start to like okra when all crisped up this way. I think green beans might be fun to bread too. Have you tried breading brussels sprouts?
