Granny in the KitchenBaby Lima Beans with Ham and Greens
Lima beans (butter beans) are a delicious and healthy way to get protein and fiber in one dish. Adding greens makes it even better! Instead of soaking the beans overnight I prefer the 1-hour "quick soak" method. The prep work can be done easily at the same time.
