Author Notes: Here's a great southern style summer side dish. For the authentic Southern version (like my friend Katie Ivory used to make back in Mississippi) use bacon drippings for the sauteeing. Vegetarians and those who are more health conscious can use olive oil instead and still make a delicious dish. The tarragon is my own, un-traditional addition. I like this dish both ways -- with or without the tarragon.

Ingredients: 1 large sweet onion (such as Vidalia or Maui varieties), chopped
2 tablespoons bacon drippings or olive oil
3 large tomatoes, chopped
1 pound fresh okra, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon tarragon (optional)
Instructions: In a large skillet, saute chopped onion in bacon drippings or olive oil until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients, reduce heat to medium low and cook, stirring, for about 10 minutes or until okra is tender.
