Lemon-Garlic Lima Beans image

GIGANTES (GREEK LIMA BEANS)

Gigantes (Greek Lima Beans) image

This is a family recipe. In Greek, it's called 'Gigantes' which translates as 'Giants.' Try to find the largest dried lima beans possible. My aunt adds small canned sausages, but I prefer this meatless. Serve with feta cheese and a crusty bread. You can also substitute 2 teaspoons parsley for the dill if you prefer.
