      1/2                Green pepper, diced
    2                    Ribs Celery, diced
    1                    Clove garlic, minced
    1       lb           Okra, sliced, fresh, frozen
    1       lb           Tomatoes, fresh, or canned
    2       c            Corn, fresh, frozen, canned
    1       t            Vegetable Bouillon granules
      1/2   c            White Grape Juice
      1/2   c            Water
      1/4   ts           Tabasco sauce
      1/4   ts           Paprika
    2       tb           Fresh chopped parsley
    1       tb           Basil or Rosemary, minced
                         Vegetable coating spray
 
   Method: In a large heavy stew pot, place bouillon and
   1/2 C white grape juice, onion, green pepper, celery
   garlic, cook until tender, 5-7 minutes. Add other
   ingredients, cook over low heat, stirring occasionally
   to keep from sticking to bottom. Cover and simmer
   gently until corn and okra are done. (or simmer in
   crockpot 6-7 hours) Note:  Cut fresh corn from cob
   with a sharp knife, then scrape the remaining corn off
   the cob.  Four ears will make about two cups. If you
   use dried herbs, rub them with the palms of your hands
   before adding to the pot, this releases their aroma
   and goodness. Exchanges: 1 Veg, 1 Bread, and 107
