Succotash
You can't get more "Southern" than succotash. This recipe comes from my mother, who was a fantastic cook. This dish made her famous at least with everyone who ever tasted it.

Hi,I saw this competition where they are looking for people that can cook the national dish of their country. I think this might be of interest to you since you already have made this recipe :)Read more about it on their facebook page:https://www.facebook.com/IngredientMatcherand in this presentation:http://www.slideshare.net/IngredientMatcher/competition-from-ingredient-matcher-cook-your-national-dish-25773568Good luck!
Succotash is not southern at all! It is from the Narragansett Indians in Massachusetts.Try making succotash with fresh, rather than frozen ingredients -- the result is soooo much better!
Sorry for the repeat!
When I was growing up, the succotash that mom served was just corn and lima beans, but it was no where near as tasty as this dish with all the extras in it. I like traditional foods, but have no objections to addinng them to them that make them even better!

Hmmm.....I found this interesting. In our midwestern family, succotash was just CORN & LIMA BEANS warmed together with butter and salt & pepper. What about the rest of you.....what did YOUR'S contain ???
This dish was awesome. We ate it as a main dish served with the creamy mashed potatoes recipe here at TOH, and everyone loved it! I think the idea of serving cornbread with it is a great idea too.
Personally I can make a meal out of this succotash with a wedge of corn bread accompanying. It's delicious.
