Succotash is a traditional Native American dish consisting primarily of corn and lima beans. Other ingredients are often added like tomatoes and peppers, or okra and sweet potatoes in the South. This succotash-inspired soup adds carrots, potatoes, and vegetable broth, thickening it into a creamy stew perfect for fall and winter slurping. Pair with a green salad for a beautiful lunch or dinner.
