Since butter beans are lima beans, please feel free to swap in limas if that’s easy for you to find in your neck of the woods. Also, this recipe works great with the smaller beans or the big fat ones (I love these things). You can even do this with green beans if you so choose, either canned or fresh. It’s a flexible flavor base we’re working with here, so riff as you see fit.
