  1. Very delicious way to fix dried baby lima beans (which I had tons of in my pantry... must have been on sale...). I used some left-over deli ham instead of bacon or salt pork, subbed BBQ sauce for the ketchup. Other than that, I followed the recipe as written (but I did cut down on the brown sugar -- I used 1/2 cup of Splenda Brown Sugar Blend -- and it was plenty sweet for me). My husband LOVED these beans -- said they were much better than canned baked beans. I'm delighted I found a recipe to use up the rest of the dried baby limas in the pantry!
