Before serving as a side dish or in a vegetable medley, soak our dried lima beans overnight and then boil for 30 minutes.

Protein-packed! Lima beans are a high protein legume. A cup of lima beans has 15 grams of protein, making them a good plant-based protein source. Great for fiber! Limas, like all beans, are high in dietary fiber. Lima beans are good for diabetics and hypoglycemics. Because lima beans have so much fiber, they do not trigger a blood sugar increase like other less fibrous carbohydrates. Soluble fiber helps digestion and prevents constipation. Hero! Consuming lots of fiber may help avoid heart disease, according to a new study. The study found that those who ate more beans had an 82 percent lower risk of heart disease than those who ate less. Magnesium! Lima beans are high in magnesium, which is good for the blood. A magnesium-rich diet can help arteries and veins “breathe” easier. This improves oxygen and nutrient circulation throughout the body. Iron energiser! A serving of lima beans supplies about 25% of our daily iron need. Keeping your iron stores supplied might help you stay awake and energized throughout the day. Menstruating women are more prone to anemia, thus eating iron-rich legumes is always a good idea.
