Author: 
Serves: 12
Ingredients
  • 1 pound fresh okra
  • ½ cup cooked shrimp, chopped
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup monterey jack cheese, shredded
  • ½ teaspoon cajun seasoning
  • 1 pound Farmland bacon
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425º F.
  2. Mix the shrimp, cheeses and cajun seasoning in a small bowl and set aside.
  3. Carefully cut each okra lengthwise down one side creating a pocket (do not cut through to the opposite side).
  4. Gently spread the pocket and stuff with the shrimp/cheese mixture - mounding on top of the okra.
  5. Cut the Farmland bacon package in half.
  6. Wrap each stuffed okra with a half strip of Farmland bacon - covering the filling and then place on a baking sheet.
  7. Bake in a 425º F oven for 20 - 25 minutes until the bacon is browned and cooked.
Notes
Don't use thick sliced bacon as you will need to stretch the bacon to cover the okra. The thick cut bacon is not as easy to stretch at the classic cut bacon!

Sweet Potato Pancakes



Ingredients
  • 1 cup Let’s Do Organic Sweet Potato Flour⁠
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar⁠
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon⁠
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder⁠
  • 1/2 cup almond milk⁠
  • 1/4 cup applesauce⁠
  • 2 tablespoons melted Native Forest Coconut Oil⁠
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar⁠
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Directions
  1. Add all the ingredients to a bowl and stir to combine. Set the batter aside for 5 minutes to let the flour hydrate.
  2. Heat a nonstick skillet on medium-low heat for 2 minutes to preheat the pan. Spray the pan with nonstick cooking oil.
  3. Add 1/3 cup of the batter into the skillet and use the back of a spoon to smooth it out into a circle, about 4 inches in diameter.
  4. Cook until the underside is browned and the edges of the pancake begin to set and darken in color. This should take about 4 minutes when the pan is at the proper temperature. If the pancake browns (or even blackens) too quickly, turn the heat down.
  5. Flip the pancake and cook for another 2-4 minutes or until the second side is browned and the center of the pancake feels firm, not doughy, to the touch. ⁠
  6. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve with fruit and maple syrup, if desired!⁠
