    I added in a little bacon to the onions and omitted the peppers (DH won't eat them). I only used half of the tomato soup as one child doesn't like tomatoes. This resulted in a nice flavorful dish that we enjoyed. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

    This was a very nice way to serve those yummy butterbeans !!! We enjoyed the sauce and thought the flavor was just right . I cooked a little bacon with the onion and green pepper , and that was the only adjustment I made to this recipe . Very Good !

    This has a nice flavor but was a bit too saucy for my taste - I would cut the soup back to 1/2 tin with no water. Next time I may try a drop or two of hot sauce in it. I liked the recipe and will try it again. Another problem I had (not the fault of the recipe) the lima beans were huge, I like them smaller Thanks for a good Butter bean recipe Quiltn99
