Lima beans are among my favorite beans to cook, with their deep, rich, sweet and nutty flavor. They also cook so easily. I especially love them in recipes like these Greek Gigantes, where they combine with tomatoes to create a magical dish you can serve as an appetizer or entree. This Mushroom-Lima Bean Stew, Indian-Style, the lima beans once again get to hang out with tomatoes and other veggies, creating tons of deliciousness. This recipe is perfect for a quick and nutritious weeknight meal, and it takes minutes to put together once you have your beans ready. Serve it hot with a rice dish or as I did with Coconut Quinoa (recipe coming up in my next post) for a very special, very delicious meal. A lot of the flavor in this recipe comes from my garden-fresh herbs. Feel free to use any you have on hand. Check to get new recipe updates by email.
