    1. Well, I did have your address but cant find it. Anyway. I think you need this recipe, don't remember where I got it. But it is really good. I have to order the Lima's from the INTERNET to get the right ones. You know the ones that are about the size of a quarter when cooked.
      Recipe:
      Creole Lima Beans

      1 pound dried extra large Lima beans
      1/2 stick butter
      1 large onion, finely chopped
      1 TBS fresh garlic, minced
      1 fresh tomato
      1 TBS sugar
      1 can Rotel tomatoes
      1 pound sausage of choice, sliced (I use ham hocks, smoked jowl, or smoked sausage.
      Salt and pepper to taste
      2 cups cooked rice

      soak beans in enough water to cover, overnight; drain and rinse. Melt butter and add onion and garlic. Sauté for 10 minutes. Add fresh tomato and sugar. Sauté for 5 minutes. Add Rotel, beans, sausage and enough water to cover beans by one inch. Cook 2 hours or until tender. Add salt and pepper. Serve over rice.
