These beauties went into an organic spicy curry soup I made today, along with bean sprouts, mushrooms, snow peas, quinoa, coconut milk and curry spice. Perfect combo with the okra (lady fingers) on a chilly winter day :) nom nom nom. Health benefits of Okra aka Lady Fingers: vitamin A, Thiamin, B6, C, folic acid, riboflavin, calcium, zinc, protein and dietary fiber. Helps maintain health and soothes the gastrointestinal tract, regulates cholesterol and blood sugar, propagates good bacteria aka probiotics, contains amino acids such as tryptophan, cysteine and other sulfur amino acids. Be well. Namaste.
