Summer Black Bean Succotash Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the green beans, corn kernels, tomatoes, peppers, mint and oregano in a large bowl and mix well. Add the vinegar, olive oil and salt and toss to coat. Let sit for 1 hour to allow the flavors to marry. Fold in the cheese just before serving.

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the corn until lightly charred on all sides, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly, then cut off the kernels and reserve.
• Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onion and sweat until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another minute. Add the lima beans and tomatoes and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
• Add the reserved corn to the saute pan. In a small bowl, mix together the butter and mayonnaise. Add the mixture to the succotash along with the lime juice. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to serving bowl.
• Sprinkle with the basil, Pecorino-Romano, cilantro, mint and smoked paprika.

Steps:

• Remove the seeds from the squash.
• Drain and rinse the black beans.
• Chop all the veggies into cubes, a tiny bit larger than a corn kernel.
• In a non-stick skillet, add butter and olive oil over high heat.
• Add onions and peppers, cook about 3 minutes or until onions begin to soften.
• Add remaining veggies, cook 2 minutes.
• Add black beans, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste, cook 1 minute more, stirring gently.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
