BUTTER BEAN HUMMUS
Like Zaar needs another hummus recipe.......But-this is different cause it's made from butterbeans (Lima beans) instead of the usual chickpeas. Found the recipe on the net a while back and have made it many times since then. Thought I'd share it.

Steps:
- Soak the beans overnight in plenty of water.
- Drain and discard the soaking water.
- Put the beans in a pot and cover with cold fresh water.
- Bring to a boil and then simmer, partially covered, until they are very tender but not mushy.
- Remove from heat and drain, reserving the cooking liquid.
- Put the beans in a food processor fitted with a steal blade.
- Add garlic, tahini, salt, pepper, and cayenne.
- Puree this mixture, and with the motor running, slowly pour in the olive oil and lemon juice.
- If the puree is too thick, pour in a little of the reserved cooking liquid until the puree is silky smooth, I use up about one cup of the cooking liquid.
- Taste for seasoning and add more salt and cayenne if desired.

BUTTER BEAN HUMMUS (HOUMOUS)
This is a recipe from Lesley Waters 'Simple Ways to Success - Healthy' cookbook. This is a really creamy houmous and the butter beans add extra protein. I use Bekah's Homemade Tahini #73859 to make it and sometimes I add a little sambal oelek for some extra spicyness. It great served with a variety of fresh vegetables and pita crisps for dipping. Or you could try one of my favourites: a fresh bagel with houmous, rocket and roasted aubergine. Yum!
