I love okra. We have grown that in our garden and I love to eat it right off the stalk.

Sure! I'll post a few next week. Can't really give an accurate taco seasoning recipe. I just eye the ingredients.

I LOVE spinach too! I've never tried spinach in the rice but I'll give it a try.

I love the way it wilts as it cooks. lol

How often do you use your Vita-mix?
|
I use it every day. I only eat one solid meal a day, dinner. My husband told the guys at work, "My wife bought a $500 blender." They were like, "WHAT?!!"  I said, "Oh, please, you've purchased 4 guns in the last month."

I have never thought of just eating a piece of raw okra.
Might have to try that LOL!
Have you ever had dehydrated okra pods?
Very tasty and very crisp! 
There's a country store not far from where I live
that makes all sorts of dehydrated veggie snacks.

I couldn't get past the prickly pod scratching my throat!
I love the dehydrated green beans. My granddaughter loves them too. I wonder how nutritional they are....better than candy, but is it like eating a serving of veggies?

I pick the okra when it is fairly small. They are so tender. And if you have several rows, that is easy to do. Amazing how FAST they grow!
I haven't dehydrated any, because we've always eaten them right away. We don't plant enough to be able to eat them raw and have enough left over to dehydrate.
I'd like to try dehydrating green beans. Now that is something you'd have enough to both eat right away and dehydrate. I hate picking them though. lol

Because dehydrating is a food preservation, (140 degrees for oven-my oven only goes as low as 170) they retain much of their original value. They will hold their value for 6 months to a year in the freezer.
Would like to dehydrate strawberries. Fruit, even though more healthy, still has a lot of sugar. I read that one cup of dehydrated blueberries is 600 calories!

Wow, I haven't checked into the prices of the Vita-Mix, but if you use it every day, I would say that is definitely a good thing to invest in... and had to laugh at your husband's purchase of 4 guns, don't even want to guess what all those cost! At least your purchase will make you healthy... your husband's purchase... well.. I won't go there
