About Christmas lima beans
Christmas Lima Beans, also known as Chestnut Lima Beans, are a heirloom variety originating in Peru and renowned for their striking marbled appearance with deep burgundy markings. They have a nutty flavor reminiscent of chestnuts and a creamy texture, making them a versatile ingredient in soups, stews, salads, and Latin-inspired dishes. These beans are rich in protein, fiber, and iron, making them a heart-healthy choice that supports digestion and sustained energy. They’re also packed with antioxidants, aiding in cellular health and immune support. Low in fat and naturally free of cholesterol, they align well with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diets. However, as with all beans, moderation is key to avoid bloating due to their complex carbohydrates. Thriving as both a nutritional powerhouse and a culinary delight, Christmas Lima Beans are a delicious and colorful addition to well-rounded meals.
