COUNTRY-STYLE BABY LIMA BEANS

These are so easy and so good with so many entrees, especially fried chicken with mashed potatoes. I've been making these for a long time, and they are one of my favorite sides. I am asked to bring them to barbeques, too. Comfort food! And so easy using frozen baby limas. From SouthYourMouth.com. Check out her recipes, she is a genius and cooks like my Grama did.

LIMA BEANS AND SAUSAGE



Lima Beans and Sausage image

My husbands favorite dish, I make this often for Sunday dinner and we serve it often as a side dish with roast and gravy. We eat it over white steamed rice. My mother in law made this often so it is a cajun comfort food to us. Low in calories but high in protien and good for you. I also cook dry navy beans this same way. ...

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 6

16 oz package of dry small lima beans
6 Tbsp baking soda
3/4 c yellow onions, chopped
1 Tbsp salt and pepper
1 Tbsp finely chopped garlic
1 lb beef sausage in casing

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium sauce pan put beans and baking soda and cover with water.
  • 2. Bring to a rapid boil then remove from the stove and rinse beans in cold water, removing all baking soda. This step eliminates having to soak the beans overnight.
  • 3. Put beans, onions, garlic and salt & pepper in a medium sauce pan and cover with water.
  • 4. Cut sausage into 2" pieces and add to pot. Bring water to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer. Continue to simmer until beans are cooked, adding water as needed to keep the beans from sticking.
  • 5. Watch beans closely as the water will cook down quickly and you will need to replenish it often. Beans should be soupy when finished.
