CREAMY BAKED LIMA BEANS

Steps:

• Soak Beans overnight, with plenty of water above the beans. They soak it up!
• In the morning, drain the beans, cover with water, add 1 tsp salt and cook until slightly tender -- 20-30 minutes. However, you must watch these babies, because they have a big tendency to boil over!Just bring them to a boil (watching them), then lower the heat --- and still watch them!
• After the beans are cooked, drain again and rinse them under hot water, and place them in a lightly sprayed or greased (oleo) casserole dish.
• Dab Butter over beans; mix "lightly"! or they get squishy.
• Stir in Molasses.
• Finally, pour in sour cream and mix "tenderly".
• Bake at 350 for one hour. (again, keep an eye on them, I don't think I usually bake them for and entire hour).

REALLY DELICIOUS LIMA BEANS

Add the lima beans, cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until they have had a chance to absorb the flavors. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve with grilled Italian sausages or breakfast sausages.

ROASTED LIMA BEANS

Pour into a large (about 9 by 12 by 3) flat baking pan. Lay strips of bacon on top of the bean mixture.
