Fresh Lima Beans
I am one lucky person, who feels like they get more than one family that cares for them. I live 6 hours from my family, but I have been living in Charlotte for the last 10 years. While living her, I’ve been ‘adopted’ by the Pendelton’s. Mrs. Pendleton went out to the garden to pick her freshly grown beans, while the “Kids” were put to work getting the beans out of their pods. Always a (healthy) good time!

Drain, melt 1 tablespoon butter over the beans. Add hot sauce and salt to taste.
