This recipe is full of goodness

Butter beans (also known as lima beans) are a powerhouse of energy! They are packed with energy boosting nutrients including magnesium which helps make protein and is needed for producing energy, as well as B vitamins including thiamine, riboflavin and folate, which are necessary for turning carbs into energy. Butter beans are also a rich source of dietary fibre, which can help to balance blood sugar levels while providing steady, slow-releasing energy.
