Lima bean hummus is quite tasty and it has the tahini so it's perfectly kosher (I mean kosher in the food sense not necessarily the rabbinical sense). You must try it tsarstepan- it'll change your thoughts and delight your tasters.

Fresh grown are a delicious treat. Another nice thing about lima beans is that they can be grown indoors and do quite well if you have windows with good sunlight. This way you can have them all year long even in cooler climates, although not in as great an amount as with the outdoor garden.
For the record, I grew my first lima beans when in the 4th grade as part of a science fair experiment-project.
In fact that one looks so good, I'm going to have to try it. Thanks!
