We eat lima beans occasionally, and I use the frozen ones. I sauté diced onion and minced garlic in a little
olive oil/butter (or bacon grease) add the beans, a little vegetable stock, salt/pepper and cook until the beans
are just tender. If I use bacon grease, I crumble the cooked bacon and sprinkle it over the beans just before
serving. If not, I stir in a little diced fresh tomato/onion/jalapeno tossed with fresh lime juice/olive oil/salt pepper.
