• 2 slices of bacon, chopped

• ¼ cup of vegetable juice
• 1 tsp of salt
• ½ tsp of black pepper
• 4 cornmeal crepes

Sauté bacon in a medium skillet until crispy. Add onion and cook until softened and slightly caramelized.

Add okra, tomatoes, juice, salt and pepper and reduce heat to low. Cover pan and simmer for 15 minutes or until okra is tender.

Assemble crepes: Lay first crepe flat. Spread ½ cup of okra-tomato mixture across the center of the crepe. Roll up. Repeat with remaining crepes.
