Spicy Stewed Okra and Tomatoes

I love okra.  Fried okra?  Check.  Okra in gumbo?  Check.  Stewed okra......well, not so much.  But after adding lots of seasonings and "extras" I am now a believer in stewed okra and tomatoes. 

4 cups roughly chopped very ripe tomatoes

15 - 20 pods of young tender okra, sliced into 1/4 inch slices

1 t. minced garlic

1/4 cup chopped onion

1 tomatillo, husked, cored and chopped

1 small jalapeno, stemmed, seeded and finely chopped

1 T. Tone's S.W. Chipotle Seasoning

1/2 t. salt

A few grinds of black pepper

In a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients.  Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to a gentle simmer.  Let okra and tomatoes cook for an hour or until okra is tender.
