Lima Bean Medley

 

One of my rainy day experiments turned out to be a very nutritious dish with fair amount of protein, anti-oxidants and other stuff that’s good for you. ðŸ˜Š Use stand-alone or as a side or even as a snack. A half recipe is plenty for two people as a side dish with some left over.

Ingredients:

·       16 oz frozen baby lima beans

·       10 oz baby portobello mushrooms - sliced

·       2 lge yellow onions – cut up to your liking

·       2 tbsp olive oil

·       Salt & pepper to taste

 

Preparation:

Cook the lima beans per pkg instructions and set aside.

In a non-stick Dutch oven , or large skillet, saute the onions over medium heat until just translucent.

Add the mushrooms and continue to cook until mushrooms are soft.

Add cooked lima beans and season with salt & pepper. Give it all a good toss and serve.

Lima Bean Medley paired with BBQ chicken and German Cucumber Salad

Blessed be... and happy cooking!
