GIGANTES (GREEK LIMA BEANS)
This is a family recipe. In Greek, it's called 'Gigantes' which translates as 'Giants.' Try to find the largest dried lima beans possible. My aunt adds small canned sausages, but I prefer this meatless. Serve with feta cheese and a crusty bread. You can also substitute 2 teaspoons parsley for the dill if you prefer.

GREEK MR. MANETTA'S BUTTER BEANS AND SAUSAGES ( DRY LIMA BEANS)
Tasty Lima Beans in tomato sauce. Leave out the sausage and make it vegetarian. Mr. Manetta explained his theory of why Greek food is so successfully seasoned. The best Greek cooks, he said, treat each major part of a dish separately, then combine it with other parts; they do not season the combined ingredients all at once. Butter beans is the other name for lima beans. There are two common varieties of lima bean - the baby lima bean and the Fordhook - but don't confuse them as the same bean in different stages of development. The Fordhook is larger, lighter in color, and has a stronger taste than the baby lima, but it is not a grown-up baby - it is a separate variety. In the south of the United States, Fordhook lima beans are commonly called butter beans. These larger beans are also known as butter beans in Europe, or Madagascar beans, since most lima beans sold in Europe are grown in Madagascar (or Mauritius). They can also be called calico beans, but that may be only when they're speckled with a bit of purple.

Cover and simmer for about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle with remaining parsley. Makes 4 to 5 servings.

Heat to boiling, then gently boil, uncovered, until beans are tender, about 45 minutes; drain.

PARTON FAMILY BAKED LIMA BEANS & SAUSAGE
This came from a cookbook called "All Day Singing and Dinner on the Ground" by Willadeene Parton (Dolly's sister) that we recently got. The cookbook is full of really good, simple family recipes! I love lima beans, so here's one we've adapted and hope to make. Time does not include overnight bean soaking.
