Summer Succotash

Most summers, my Tennessee family meets up with the South Florida family in the panhandle. We bring our dogs, rent a beach house, take turns cooking, and watch the sunset everynight. I decided to share this Summer Succotash I made to accompany Tuesday's burrito night. It's really fresh and sweet. I sort of wung it, so measurements are really just suggestions.

Combine:

2 mangos, diced

raw sweet corn (four cobs)

1 can of seasoned butter beans

2 tomatoes, diced

1 jalapeno, minced

juice of 2 limes

s&p to taste

My cousin, Carey, and I were lucky enough to be the same age growing up at the beach. And now we're back 20+ years later, with Carey about to have her own little one and me about to be a godmother (!!!!!!!).

Here's some photos I've been taking over the last few days. Sorry, it was difficult to edit them down.

p.s. Despite being a Floridian, this is Oliver's first time at the beach (and he loves it).
