Directions
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. ZAAR ) on March 20th.,2011,Mother always started by dicing about three or four slices of bacon, cooking until bacon is brown and rendered, then adding water. When the water boils, dump in the frozen lima beans and cover again. Bring back to a boil. Turn fire down to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes. Check to see if you need to add more water, and taste for salt. Add salt and water if needed. Cover and bring back to a simmer for another 30 minutes. Check the beans to see if they’re done. They should be creamy inside, not mealy feeling. Serve when ready! Very simple, but irresistible!,These beans are the best!!! I change things up though. I throw everything in the crockpot. Limas, chicken broth, hamhocks, garlic, onion, and I add slices of green bell pepper. Cook all day (about 8 hours) and enjoy smelling until they are soft. Enjoy!!
