Sometimes I just get a craving for green lima beans and tonight was one of them. The one vegetable I absolutely cannot be trusted to cook is frozen lima beans. I almost always overcook (turn them to mush) or undercook them.

And the rice is brown rice from Trader Joe's. It is very, very good. Not like white rice at all. I add butter, salt, and pepper to it even if I'm going to serve it under a sauce.

I LOVE green Lima's.. I made a recipe (years ago :& I WILL do it again soon).. with the frozen.. add a mixture of sauteed onions, (butter), almonds, swiss cheese & cream (or sour cream?.. wonderful.

I used to serve it w/ steak.. now as a boring vegetarian I dont.. but it was good. The beans are rather dry/tasteless BUT healthy & this recipe gave them some PIZZAZ
