    Very Good
    I really like this but leave out the sugar as I don't like the sweetness. - 1/14/17

    Incredible!
    I love this recipe. I didn't have enough lima bean so I added black beans to make up the difference. I will make this again! - 4/3/14

    Very interesting dish. I didn't bake it the full amount of time. Very good with salsa - 7/17/10

    Incredible!
    this is really good! I honestly thought that I would not like these, but we all did, will for sure make again. I used dry lima beans, soaked them overnight, then cooked in a slow cooker all day and I used jarred tomato/basil sauce instead of crushed tomatoes. Truly yummy! - 5/18/10

    Good
    This was good. Not sure why it needed to bake for an hour. I added okra to mine - 10/15/08
