Yes, it's BACON! Glorious BACON!

I got the recipe from this website, by the way.


Ingredients:
4 ounces thick sliced bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 medium onion, cut into medium dice
1 (10 ounce) package frozen baby lima beans
1/2 cup water
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 (10 ounce) package frozen sweet corn
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme leaves
2 teaspoons snipped fresh chives


Directions

1. Cook and stir bacon in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat until crisp, 7 to 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate.
2. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons bacon drippings. Add onion; sauté in drippings until tender, about 5 minutes. Add lima beans, water, salt, and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and continue to simmer, covered, until partially cooked, about 5 minutes. Add corn, cream, and thyme; return to a simmer and cook until vegetables are fully cooked and cream doesn't pool, about 5 minutes more. (Can be refrigerated at this point for up to 2 days ahead.)
3. Stir bacon and chives into warm succotash to serve.

Verdict: A; delicious. The texture was creamy, as advertised, and you could taste the thyme, chives and bacon. When you season it, don't use a heavy paw with the salt; the bacon added at the end will do quite nicely.
