Notes
You can easily use canned corn or fresh corn removed from the cob in this recipe if you prefer. Also, canned beans can be used instead of frozen lima beans in this recipe. Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Make this recipe vegetarian by leaving out the bacon and using vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
