Succotash

succotashLast Christmas I had this succotash at my mother-in-laws and I knew I would have to make it myself. It is incredibly easy to make and can be kept warm in the crockpot for hours. Recipe courtesy of Dale Fillmer.

  • 1 bag frozen lima beans
  • 1 bag frozen corn
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 2 1/4 cup milk
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • chicken broth

Pour the vegetables into the crockpot. In a large skillet, melt the butter and add the flour. Whisk together until the flour turns a nice golden color, about 3-5 minutes. Add in the milk, salt and pepper and stir constantly until the sauce starts to thicken. Pour over the vegetables and add chicken broth to desired consistency. Warm on high for at least two hours before serving.
