Make
-
In a saucepan, combine lima beans, water, and butter (portion for succotash). Cover and cook over medium-high heat until lima beans are tender (~10 minutes for fresh and ~5 minutes for frozen). Remove the cover and continue cooking until excess water has cooked off. Add onions and corn and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until corn is tender, ~3 minutes. Add lemon juice. Season with some salt and pepper. Set aside, covered.
-
Place a skillet over high heat. Add herb butter and, once melted, add tomatoes. Saute until tomatoes begin to blacken in spots, ~4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Add eggs and gently fold into filling. Cook, stirring frequently, until eggs are cooked through but still tender, ~5 minutes. Season with some salt and pepper.
-
Serve eggs with succotash on the side.
