   1                    Onion -- chopped
     1/2                Green pepper -- diced
   2                    Ribs Celery -- diced
   1                    Clove garlic -- minced
   1      pound         Okra; sliced, fresh -- frozen
   1      pound         Tomatoes; fresh -- or canned
   2      cups          Corn; fresh, frozen -- canned
   1      teaspoon      Vegetable Bouillon granules
     1/2  cup           White Grape Juice
     1/2  cup           Water
     1/4  teaspoon      Tabasco sauce
     1/4  teaspoon      Paprika
   2      tablespoons   Fresh parsley -- chopped
   1      tablespoon    Basil or Rosemary -- minced
                        Vegetable coating spray

Method: In a large heavy stew pot, place bouillon and 1/2 C white grape juice,
 onion, green pepper, celery garlic, cook until tender, 5-7 minutes.
Add other ingredients, cook over low heat, stirring occasionally to keep from sticking to bottom. 
Cover and simmer gently until corn and okra are done. (or simmer in crockpot 6-7 hours) 
 Note:  Cut fresh corn from cob with a sharp knife, then scrape the remaining corn off the cob.
  Four ears will make about two cups. If you use dried herbs, rub them with the palms
 of your hands before adding to the pot, this releases their aroma and goodness.
