1c okra (fresh or frozen (if frozen thaw in a pan))

    You rule! :happy: I've been hunting all over for tasty foods I can cook for my mom during her low iodine diet and this works. Just curious, what kind of squash did you use?

    I love green... but yellow works well too. It's fast, EZ, and healthy. Hope she enjoys
