Succotash is a dish of boiled corn mixed with beans and seasonal vegetables. The indigenous people of the Haudenosaunee (also called the Iroquois or Six Nations) used to call corn, beans and squash “the three sisters,” as these three plants are mutually supportive as they grow. Succotash ingredients may also include bell peppers, lima beans, zucchini, summer squash and browned bacon.

Carbon footprint
To limit our impact on the environment, we advise you to remain within 1 kg CO2-equivalent per meal, including all the courses you eat. Bear in mind that plant-based dishes are more likely to have a low environmental impact.
Even though some of our suggestions exceed the recommended 1 kg CO2-equivalent per meal, that doesn't mean you should never make them; it's the overall balance that counts. Regularly eating a healthy and eco-friendly diet in the long term offsets even the dishes with the most impact, as long as you don't make them too often.
