A pan of blueberry and corn succotash

Description

Succotash is a Southern favorite traditionally made with sweet corn, lima beans and sweet peppers. Swapping blueberries for the peppers preserves the vibrant colors and sweet notes of the original dish, while the addition of crispy bacon and fresh thyme rounds out and updates the flavors of this classic blueberry and sweet corn succotash recipe.

  • 3 Slices center cut 30% less fat bacon, chopped
  • 1 Cup chopped red onion
  • 2 Cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 Tsp. chopped fresh thyme

  1. Fill a small saucepan half full with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Add lima beans and return to a boil for 5 minutes; drain.
