About Butterbeans
Butterbeans, also known as lima beans, are creamy, flat legumes typically enjoyed in southern U.S. cuisine, as well as dishes from Latin America and Africa. Rich in plant-based protein and dietary fiber, they are a great addition to a balanced diet. Butterbeans are packed with essential nutrients, including folate, potassium, magnesium, and iron, which support heart health, energy production, and a healthy nervous system. They are naturally low in fat and contain no cholesterol, making them heart-friendly. Their high fiber content aids digestion and helps maintain stable blood sugar levels. While butterbeans are nutrient-dense, canned varieties may contain added sodium, so it's best to opt for low-sodium options or rinse them before use. Whether enjoyed in soups, stews, salads, or casseroles, butterbeans offer both nourishment and versatility, making them a delicious and health-conscious addition to any meal plan.
