About Baby lima beans
Baby lima beans, often called butter beans, are small, creamy, and tender legumes with a mild flavor. Native to Central and South America, they are a staple in Latin American, Southern U.S., and Mediterranean cuisines. Rich in essential nutrients, baby lima beans provide a good source of plant-based protein, dietary fiber, iron, and folate, making them ideal for vegetarians and those seeking heart-healthy ingredients. Low in fat and naturally cholesterol-free, they support digestion, improve energy levels, and contribute to overall cellular health. Their complex carbohydrates offer sustained energy without blood sugar spikes, making them suitable for weight management and diabetes-friendly diets. However, lima beans should be cooked properly from fresh or dried states to deactivate natural compounds that can be harmful when raw. Versatile and nourishing, baby lima beans are easily incorporated into soups, stews, and salads for a satisfying and wholesome meal.
