Pour oil into a large nonstick skillet and place over medium-high heat
Once the oil is heated, add the okra and lime juice. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring frequently
Reduce heat to medium-low. Add the onion, garlic, hot peppers (optional), turmeric, cayenne, salt, and black pepper. Sauté until onions become translucent
Add turnip greens and roselle greens then sautéed until wilted about 5-7 minutes.
Serve over rice, quinoa, or the grain of your choice and enjoy!
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium high heat and sauté zucchini cubes until golden, about 1-2 minutes
In the same pan, add a little more oil and sauté eggplant, onion, peppers and okra until slightly browned, about 3-4 minutes
Next add the tomato, water, thyme, oregano, garlic, salt and black pepper then bring to a low simmer
Cook stirring occasionally until all vegetables are tender, about 10-15 minutes
Transfer to a serving dish, sprinkle freshly chopped fresh basil. ENJOY!
Pulse pine nuts in a food processor until separated into small pieces. Scrape down sides, then add garlic and olive oil. Pulse until ingredients are finely chopped in chunks, but not a paste texture—stop and scrape sides with spatula when needed
Add the herbs, lemon juice, zest, salt, and pepper and pulse until incorporated—stopping every 15 seconds or so to scrape the sides.
Finally, add in the large cheese chunks and pulse until ingredients are finely chopped (but not pasty). Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Enjoy on toast, roasted vegetables, pasta or marinade for fish!
