Sufferin' Succotash

June 21, 2011

Sylvester had it wrong, you do not suffer making or eating succotash.  Succotash may be one of the easiest side dishes you could ever make.  All you need are some veggies, butter, and a skillet.  This southern recipe traditionally uses lima beans and tomatoes but I made some changes based on my own tastes.  Edamame is becoming increasingly easy to find (if you can get them already shelled, that's even better) and works beautifully in this recipe. You can make this dish year round with canned corn but when the fresh ears are in season use those.  Serve this succotash at your next outdoor cookout.
