Notes
- Although lima beans are traditional, feel free to use edamame, white or fava beans too.
- Omit the feta cheese for a vegan option.
- Add cooked, chopped bacon if desired.
- Add in additional vegetables like green beans or sweet peas.
- Swap basil for dill or parsley
- Fresh or frozen beans, cooked al dente, are best. Canned lima beans are much softer.
- Fresh or frozen corn are best but canned can be used.
- Use coconut oil or ghee to saute onion if preferred.
