Roasted Lima Beans with Lime & Cayenne

Try these delicious and healthy Roasted Lima Beans with Lime & Cayenne. I grew up eating canned lima beans. This seems like a more grown up version. You can use frozen lima beans, skipping the boiling and just thaw them, which is what I did. Lima beans, like many other legumes, are a good source of dietary fibre, and a virtually fat-free source of high quality protein. Lima beans contain both soluble fibre, which helps regulate blood sugar levels and lowers cholesterol, and insoluble fibre, which aids in the prevention of constipation, digestive disorders, irritable bowel syndrome and diverticulitis.

Artichokes with Lemon Butter

Artichokes with Lemon Butter

Artichokes with Lemon Butter are so good. My family happens to be addicted to artichokes. I had never heard of or seen an artichoke until I was in my twenties, living in Paris. (I grew up in Indiana on canned vegetables). Anyway, I learned how to make artichokes from my friend Jody, who lived in the same foyer.
