"This is a fantastic way to prepare butter beans, which are full of nutrition and low in fat," advises Grace Malone of Lafayette, Colorado. "It's great as a side but filling enough to be the main course."

I'm a vegetarian. Can I use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth?

I'd love to try this recipe, but I don't have any butter beans. Can I use another type of bean?

I'm not a big fan of butter beans, but this recipe changed my mind. The sauce was so creamy and flavorful, and the beans were cooked perfectly.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

Easy to make and delicious! I used canned beans to save time and they turned out great. The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the beans were tender. I served them with cornbread and collard greens.
