Lima Bean Soup Recipes

A hearty vegetarian soup made with few ingredients; perfect for a cold day.

This is a lot of prep to prepare this healthy natural soup. Read cooking instructions instead of ingredients.

A delicious, creamy soup that's satisfying and healthy. This recipe is from my sister's mother-in-law.

I tried to manually enter the info for dried beans, but I don't think it took.

1 lb Lima beans (dry)
2 chopped onions
2 chopped bell peppers
3 minced garlic cloves
3 Cups Vegetable or chicken broth
3 Cups water
1 tsp thyme
1 tsp parsley
1 tsp oregano
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 T olive oil

Good soup to have when it's cold outside. Is really great to pair with a salad and garlic bread. Very filling.

Great for slow cooker. Soak beans overnight. Rinse put in 6 cups of water or broth(vegetable or chicken), add additional ingredients cook until beans are tender.

A great winter treat

Healthy Lima Bean soup (or chowder) with bell peppers, carrots, potatoes, celery, and lima beans.

For a really filling and nutritous meal on a cold day. Cook in a crockpot or on stove. A half-cup to 3/4 cp serving will keep you full and satisfied for hours, not to mention warm you up. If you like "heat" add chilies.

I did not have dried limas, so substituted a mixture of dried beans with excellent results. This recipe is a keeper for us. I would like to try it with ham or smoked sausage for a more smoky flavor. Also, I had a turnip in the fridge I needed to use and threw it in for good measure. Could be an added ingredient if you like. Very tasty.

1 Serving = 1 cup

This recipe can be made as a quick cook option or a slow cooked homemade option. I use the slow cook homemade option and have it listed as a 120 prep time to reflect the slow cooker cook time.

Very hearty warm soup easy to make in a crock pot.

Delicious and filling. Need to do a little prep with the beans but well worth it!

I used a pressure cooker but this could just as easily be made without. The only difference would be to ensure that the beans are cooked through before adding to the pot and then simmer the whole thing through for around an hour while the liquids in the pot reduce and draw the flavours together.

Vegetable soup with no meat, Vegan

Trying to get more potassium. This is a simple variation. Probably garlic would be a nice addition, and perhaps some tomato.

Diabetic friendly. Serve with green leafy salad.
