Okra and onions are fried with bacon, then simmered with tomato and corn in this delicious side dish that is especially good served alongside cornbread. This recipe is a longtime family favorite. (I couldn't find file seasoning so I used Cajun seasoning and it was delicious.)

Ingredients:
| 2 slices | bacon, chopped |
| 1 | medium onion, chopped |
| 1 (10-ounce) package | frozen cut okra |
| 1 (14.5-ounce) can | diced tomato, drained |
| 1 (20-ounce) package | frozen corn |
| 1 tablespoon | file powder or cajun seasoning |
| salt and pepper to taste |
Directions:
Place bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir to release some of the juices, then add the onion and okra. Fry until tender and browned, stirring constantly. Be careful, as this tends to brown quickly.
Pour in the tomatoes, and simmer over medium heat for 20 minutes. Mix in the corn, and simmer for another 10 minutes. Season with file powder (or cajun seasoning), salt and pepper, and serve.
