  1. Tomatoes: I slice them into wedges, sprinkle salt, pepper, and dill and eat them. Yum!




    Bell Peppers: Slice into strips and sprinkle with salt.




    Okra: I like to cut the ends off and steam them but my family prefers fried okra. They slice them into pieces about 3/4" wide and dip them in buttermilk and then dip them in cornmeal and fry them up.




    Squash and zucchini: Slice and saute with a small yellow onion. Sometimes cover with cheese.



    Black eyed peas: boil them in a pan of water, lightly salt them.




    Green beans: When available, a little fatback lard or bacon is used, or else, beef bouillion cubes. Also when available, throw in fresh baby potatoes! Also good with sliced almonds.




    Corn: sometimes boiled on the cob and buttered, but most of it is cut off and cooked with butter and a little salt.
