Succotash - No Limas

Ingredients

1 medium red onion, chopped
2 Tbsp. evoo or grapeseed oil
1/2 Tbsp. fresh squeezed lemon juice
2 1/2 cups frozen whole kernel corn
1 medium-size green bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 medium-size red bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 medium-size plum tomato, diced
1/2 cup vegetable stock
1 (16-oz.) package frozen edamame, thawed
1 Tbsp. Earth Balance
1 Tbsp. chopped fresh mint
2 Tbsp. chopped, fresh basil
Sea Salt and ground black pepper to taste

How we make it

Using a large skillet over medium heat, heat the oil
and add in the onion. Sauté the onion for about 3 minutes
or until tender. Add peppers and corn, and allow to simmer
for about 5 more minutes or until tender.

Stir in vegetable stock, and bring to a boil over medium-high
heat; then reduce heat to low. Stir in edamame, diced tomato,
lemon juice and basil; cook for 3 more minutes. Stir in Earth
Balance until melted. Remove from heat, and stir in mint and sea
salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
