Corn and Beans and Bacon and Tomatoes
"About as southern as it gets - lots of veggies with a layer of bacon. I suppose, in the interest of healthy eating, one could use turkey bacon. But that seems like blasphemy to me ..."

Surprisingly good! I wasn't sure what to expect with canned lima beans, never having used them before, but the dish itself was really delicious. The next time I make this for the family I'll only use half the green pepper as we thought it came through a little strong in this dish. I'm so glad I tried this one. TFS!
