• Salt and pepper and butter to taste.
• Cook for 10 to 20 minutes until tender.
• Meanwhile, heat up 1 tablespoon butter; saute onion until transparent.

• Add ketchup, pickle relish, salt and pepper to taste, sour cream, and a tiny pinch of basil.

• Libby used oven as warmer because everyone was outside working.

A WHOLE NEW WAY TO ENJOY LIMA BEANS

Steps:

• Cook the lima beans in boiling salted water as directed on the package. If using canned lima beans, you will not need to add salt.
• Add sugar (if using) to the cooking water.
• Drain the beans well. At this point, the beans are still hot.
• Add the cream and butter to the hot beans. Taste and add salt and pepper as desired.
• Serve beans warm.

BAKED LIMA BEANS

Steps:

• Soak beans in water overnight. Drain. Add fresh water, just enough to cover the beans, and salt. Cook until tender, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees. If necessary, pour off some water from the beans so that they are very moist but not swimming in liquid. Add ketchup, brown sugar and mustard to the beans and water. Pour into a large (about 9 by 12 by 3) flat baking pan. Lay strips of bacon on top of the bean mixture.
• Bake for 2 1/2 hours. If the bacon starts browning too fast, reduce heat to 225 degrees and extend the baking time by 1 hour.

CREAMY BAKED LIMA BEANS

Steps:

• Soak Beans overnight, with plenty of water above the beans. They soak it up!
• In the morning, drain the beans, cover with water, add 1 tsp salt and cook until slightly tender -- 20-30 minutes. However, you must watch these babies, because they have a big tendency to boil over!Just bring them to a boil (watching them), then lower the heat --- and still watch them!
• After the beans are cooked, drain again and rinse them under hot water, and place them in a lightly sprayed or greased (oleo) casserole dish.
• Dab Butter over beans; mix "lightly"! or they get squishy.
• Stir in Molasses.
• Finally, pour in sour cream and mix "tenderly".
• Bake at 350 for one hour. (again, keep an eye on them, I don't think I usually bake them for and entire hour).

CREAMED LIMA BEANS

Steps:

• Cook lima beans according to package directions; I use the microwave.
• Melt butter in saucepan, stir in flour and blend well.
• Add milk, about 1/2 cup at a time, and blend with whisk.
• Cook over medium heat until thickened.
• Total amount of milk depends on how thick you prefer the sauce to be.
• Stir in sugar, salt and pepper.
• Add cooked, drained lima beans.
