Farmhouse Succotash Recipe

Every Memorial Day Weekend,

my Daddy’s side has a huge Family Reunion.

Aunt, Uncles, Cousins, Nephews, and

People You’ve Never Seen In Your Life.

Like most Family Reunions in the South,

it’s all about the food.

Let’s face it – it may be called a “Family Reunion“

but it should be called the

“Gathering of People Where You Eat Until

You Literally Want to Throw Up.”

I guess “Family Reunion” sounds better, huh?

😀

I am sharing the dish I took last year….

Italian-Style Farmhouse Succotash

I come from a long line of fabulous Southern Cooks.

My grandma and my Mama taught me all they knew.

Each family member is kinda known for a particular

recipe which they are “expected” to bring.

My Grandmother always made her famous homemade

Chicken Salad, among many dishes.

My Mama is the Collard Queen and

the official Banana Pudding Expert.

My Aunt is known for her Corn Pudding.

Another Aunt makes the best Fried Chicken.

I have an Uncle who always brings

melt-in-your-mouth Ribs.

And then….there is Verna Lee.

You never know what to expect from Verna Lee.

The best way to describe her is to imagine someone

with severe ADD – in the Kitchen.  

She means well, and I’m

sure her dishes start out with good intentions –

and ingrediens – but somewhere along the way she

adds the “Verna Lee”  ingredient of disaster and it

all goes down hill from there.

The names of her dishes always sounds like

a Stew Pot of Mix-matched Ingredients.

(and, looks like it too)

:-O

Last year – she proudly proclaimed her dish 

“Chicken, Bologna, Green Pea Casserole” to be

her best yet.

And she wasn’t happy until every single person

had tried it. Even if she had to force feed you.

Then, you HAD to tell her how amazing it tasted,

even if you were trying not to gag.

😀

Italian-Style Farmhouse Succotash by The Everyday Home

Last year, I made this Italian-Style Farmhouse Succotash

and added cooked and cooled Cheese Tortellini .

 (a wonderful edition, by the way)

Verna Lee asked what my dish was.

“It’s an Italian-Style Farmhouse Succotash, Verna Lee.”

“Eye-tal-yun?  They eat lima beans over in Eye-talia?”

“I’m not sure about lima beans, but I’m sure they

eat beans, yes?”

“Hmmm…” she said looking it over questionably. 

(I don’t recall Verna Lee ever telling someone something looked

or sounded yummy.)

“Well, I don’t know what all that stuff is in there,”

she commented, pointing.

“Well,” I explained, “It’s a basic Southern Succotash

with a few changes and a few extra ingredients

like artichoke hearts and feta cheese.”

‎Farmhouse-Succotash-Recipe  / The Everyday Home  / www.everydayhomeblog.com (9)

“What cheese?”

“F-E-T-A cheese,” I said slowly.

“Never heard of it,” she said rather haughtily and added,

“I don’t know about any Fatta cheese, but I would

have added pineapple and bologna.”

“Thanks, Verna Lee.  I’ll try that next time.”

😀

 {#ad  I was supplied a sample product for my own use, but all opinions are of my own.}

I wanted to share an amazing new item we were

all gifted with for this month’s event.  

We each got to choose a beautiful product from

Polder’s Old World Market, makers of

fine, handcrafted kitchenware.

Ultimate Spatulas by Polders Old World Market / www.poldersoldworldmarket.com

Ultimate Spatulas by Polder’s Old World Market

My package arrived and I immediately tore into it.

I have a passion and love affair for wood spoons of all 

kinds.   So imagine my delight when I saw this…

‎Farmhouse-Succotash-Recipe  The Everyday Home  www.everydayhomeblog.com (2)

Cherry Cookie Spatula by Polder’s Old World Market

I chose the Cookie Spatula made of Cherry.

I am not a huge baker, so you’re probably wondering

why I chose a Cookie Spatula.  

I think it will have soooo many uses, much more

than cookies. I also loved how beautiful it was.

I had to share one more thing with you.

My newest find from Marshall’s.

I hadn’t planned on buying them, but when I saw them I

knew they needed a place of honor in my kitchen.

‎Farmhouse-Succotash-Recipe  The Everyday Home  www.everydayhomeblog.com (4)

My newest salt and pepper cellars.

Aren’t they fabulous?  🙂

I just adore the tine little hen on top of the wood lids.

And I love that they hold a lot of salt and pepper plus have

a wide opening for me to grab a “pinch” or a “dash.”
