1. "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.

2. Put onion mixture, tomatoes, vegetable stock, lima beans, corn, okra, salt and allspice in a Crock-Pot.

3. 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.
