  1. Quite a nice change for me. I didn't have any lemon juice, so I added some lemon pepper to the spice blend when I cooked the beans.
     
  2. These are SO good I crave them sometimes! And their pretty easy to make if I remember to prep the dry lima beans.
     
  3. Delicious lima beans, DH loved them. Next time I will use a little more of the dry mustard, it would be even better with a stronger mustard flavour. I will be making these again, thanks for posting!!
     
  4. My husband asked for seconds! I'm keeping this recipe at the top of my list. I love the flavors the mustard imparts to the beans.
