- You cook a large package of frzn lima beans in water, adding a large can of tomatoes (I like the diced ones). The traditional recipe calls for adding a couple slices of bacon for the smoked flavor, but you could use turkey bacon just as well, as the bacon is discarded before serving, and turkey bacon could supply the smoky flavor just as well as regular. The soup doesn't need to cook any longer than it takes to cook the lima beans, and toward the end you add in some cut corn-corn freshly cut off the cob is best, but frzn is okay too. This soup is seasoned with salt and pepper and a Tbsp. or possibly two of sugar. My family is from the Eastern Shore of Maryland (the peninsula on the other side of the Chesapeake Bay), and they like to use sugar to season many of their vegetables. It doesn't take much to give it the required sweetness. Anyway, season to taste as you like. (A variation which I like involves cooking
- "dumplings" in the soup. These are made by mixing Bisquick (low-fat would work fine) with a little (skim) lowfat milk to make a dough. Then you healthy pinch off marble-sized pcs of the dough into the boiling soup, and cook till the dumplings are done, just a few min. I really love the soup with the dumplings.)
