Succotash



I wanted succotash to accompany the lasagna for hubby's birthday dinner tonight. I wasn't impressed with any of the recipes I found online, so I created this one on the fly with ingredients I had on hand. It's very basic but tasted absolutely incredible! Even picky daughter ate every bite. It's going into my permanent recipe file.

SUCCOTASH

2-3 slices bacon
1 tsp. minced garlic
1 tbl. dehydrated onion flakes
1 tsp. kosher salt
1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
2 cups frozen corn kernels
1 cup frozen baby lima beans
15 oz. can diced tomatoes

In a skillet with a tight-fitting lid, fry bacon until crisp. Remove bacon and set aside. Reduce heat and add garlic and onion to bacon drippings in pan. Cook and stir until onion becomes soft. Crumble bacon and add to skillet with salt, pepper, corn, lima beans and tomatoes. Stir to combine. Cover and simmer about 20 minutes, or until vegetables are cooked through.

Serves 6-8
