Here is what you will need:
russet or baking potatoes (one for each person you are cooking for)
Olive oil
3 sweet onions
4 tbsp butter (I used earth balance to keep it vegan)
1 red bell pepper
2 garlic cloves
2 cups frozen lima beans
2 cups frozen corn
For the potatoes:
Put your oven on 400.
Wash the potatoes and slice horizontally across them (not going all the way through) so that they can flower open (you can see my photo if you need a visual).
Cut two of your onions into rings, then halve them.
Place some onion between each of the potato slices to keep them open.
Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes, making sure the oil gets into the slices.
Place extra onion on top and bake for 30 mins or until the potato is tender.
For the Succotash
Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat.
Chop the last onion and the bell pepper and place in skillet. Cook until the onion is tender and just starting to brown.
Chop up the garlic and throw that in the skillet.
Next toss in the frozen veggies (keep them frozen until you put them in, no thawing needed) and cook for 10 mins.
I served the potato over the succotash. It was so good! The succotash needed some spice, so I let the eaters salt/pepper/season as they wished.
I hope you enjoy!

Happy eating,
