Did you make the gravy on the mashed potatoes? Or did you find a vegan brown gravy. I have been looking everywhere for a decent recipe and feel like I’m getting nowhere. Thanks :]

Lolo! You are just genius, woman. I’m having carnivores over tomorrow for dinner and I’m going to cook all of this up. I’m a Texas girl born and raised and this is my kind of dinner! I would have never thought to whip up this exact combination, though. My mom makes “smothered” okra, which involves a similar recipe, but you put it in the oven instead….for anyone who’s trying to keep away from the frying pan.

Your blog inspires me to get into the kitchen. I can’t wait for your cookbook!

This looks perfect except for one thing: where the heck are the black eyed peas? Makes it the complete southern vegan meal and adds some protein to that plate:) I love black eyed peas, they have such a delicious flavour, melt in your mouth texture and lots of history. In Georgia, where my grandma is from, you cook black eyed peas on New Years day to bring in a good year. Usually served with rice, collard greens and a ham hock, but you can always leave out the ham:)

yes, this georgia gal approves! personally, i like roasted brussel sprouts, sprinkle with some balsamic vinegar, evoo, whatever dried spices you like, a couple of tsps of brown sugar, and throw them in the toaster oven at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. i didn’t think this up, ironically it came from george duran’s ‘ham on the street’ show, but he does have some good veggie recipes at times

I’d be curious to see your refrigerator, if you can just come up with those sorts of ingredients on short notice.

I bought a deep fat frier not long ago and this sounds just GREAT.

Glad to see some southerner’s approve! Thanks everyone!

Rachel – The cornbread was good, but it wasn’t great. Once I get a recipe I really love I’ll be sure to let you know if it’s going on the blog or in the book!

This all looks delicious! Are we going to get any other recipes from this dinner, or are those for the book/zine? I’d love to make that cornbread.

I’ve lived in Georgia almost all my 46 years, and I’ve eaten a LOT of fried okra. Never vegan though – this recipe sounds good.
