This will work!!! :-)
Interesting putting in your own quantities, though.


I used dried baby lima beans. I'm going to try it with fresh limas...

Everybody in the family enjoyed them, even my greatest skeptic!


Yes, my measuring methods are always pinch and pour and taste when I'm just cooking something up - I tend to go heavy on the marjoram because I love the stuff and it never seems to overpower. I mixed in some cream cheese when I had my leftover serving the next day (limas AND cream cheese would have been just too much for hubby to take) It was soooo good, but then I am a cream cheese fiend:)
Thanks for the 5! glad everyone enjoyed!
