EASY LIMA BEANS

If you are looking for a way to fix lima beans besides boiling them in water try this recipe. I don't think you'll be sorry you tried them. :) If you want to have more of a buttery flavor,remove the beans from the liquid and place into a bowl then add the final 2 Tablespoons of butter and then salt and pepper to taste. I saw the basic recipe on allrecipes.com which was posted to that site by SharonB13.The name is the same as her's, but I changed a few things to the recipe and decided to post it under my own name.Submitted to Food.com ( A.K.A.

Steps:

  • Soak lima beans according to package directions.
  • Place beans, ham hock and onion in pot.
  • (I like to use my pressure cooker but it's not necessary) Cook beans according to package directions.
  • Taste a bean to make sure cooked through.
  • Cook until tender.
  • You can also add a small chopped potatoe to the pot when you cook beans.
  • This will help thicken liquid and all you need is a pan of cornbread and a salad with this.
