This is my second version of Lima bean dip. This time I added taco seasoned cooked ground beef in a layer on the bottom to encourage dipping all the way to the bottom.
I used one package of frozen baby lima beans cooked in a little water.
I let them cool a little.
Next I Blended beans with 2 cups of water, lemon juice and a pinch of salt.
Added more water so the blender would keep going. It was kind of bogging down with all those beans.
Then I got every thing out. Really more cheese is preferable. This is just all that there was in the fridge.
As planned I started with a layer of ground beef.
Then cheese. If you have enough cheese, don’t be cheap like I was.
Next layer on the lima bean puree, parsley,
Greek yogurt,
and tomatoes.
Top with more cheese and
a sprinkle more of parsley.
That’s all.
Serve immediately or make ahead.
