Lima beans are very high in fiber and protein. They have a delicate taste and are therefore particularly valued in India as an addition to stews or other vegetable dishes. They can also be combined with minced meat and potatoes. Butter beans have a slightly creamy taste and, thanks to their high fiber content, they keep you full for a long time.
