Even vegans can have their gumbo and eat it too. Here's how. Serves eight. Oh, and did we mention that this recipe is extremely low-fat?

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • Groceries
  • Crock-Pots
  • Saucepans
  • 1/4 tsp. allspice
  • 3 whole cloves
  • 1 c. corn kernels
  • 1 diced green pepper
  • 1 c. cooked lima beans
  • 1 1/2 c. sliced okra
  • 1 chopped onion
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 2 c. diced tomatoes
  • 4 c. vegetable stock
  • water for sauteeing
Step1
"Saute" onion, green pepper and cloves in a dry nonstick pan until soft (use medium heat). Add water as necessary to prevent sticking. Remove cloves.
Step2
Put onion mixture, tomatoes, vegetable stock, lima beans, corn, okra, salt and allspice in a Crock-Pot.
Step3
Cover and cook on high for 6 hours (or on low for 8 to 10 hours).

Tips & Warnings

  • You can saute the onion mixture in oil if you want, but that adds a little fat, of course.
  • Add a little salt to the onions as they cook, to draw water out of them and make them less likely to stick.

on 2/5/2008 Tried this yesterday, it was yummy! I left out the whole cloves and added about a teaspoon of Creole Seasoning. It was super easy and tasty!
