Makes 4-6 servings
2 – 3 T. olive oil
1 – 8 oz. can of tomato sauce
1 bunch of green onions, white and green parts, sliced thin
1 pound package of frozen lima beans
1 – 2 t. dried dill
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup of water
- In a saucepan, add oil and tomato sauce and cook for about 5 minutes, over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens
- Add lima beans, green onions, dill, salt and pepper and water; stir well, cover with lid and cook on low heat for about 20 – 30 minutes, until most of the water is absorbed and the lima beans are saucy
- To make the recipe for zucchini, omit the lima beans and replace with 6 to 8 small zucchini squash, washed and scrubbed well, skin left on, sliced about1/2 inch thick
- Omit the water, the zucchini having a lot of moisture will release plenty of liquid
- Cook, stirring occasionally for 20 – 30 minutes until zucchini is soft and most of the liquid is absorbed, and zucchini is saucy
