 Hot Pepper Succotash is a spicy, quick version of an American staple that
 is simple to make and fun to eat. (Native) American
 
 American Indians made dishes from the corn and beans they grew side by side
 in their fields. When they harvested the patch, they cooked the vegetables
 together and called it succotash, their word for ``hodgepodge.'' It was
 really a meal in itself when made with ham or other meat as well as
 vegetables. Fresh vegetables were added in the summer and dried ones in the
 winter.
