Vegetarian Boston Baked Beans

1          pound dry baby lima beans
2          tablespoons butter or margarine
1⁄2       cup (packed) brown sugar
2          tablespoons molasses
1          tablespoon prepared mustard
1          teaspoon salt
1          cup fat-free imitation sour cream

 
Soak and cook limas according to preferred method.  Cut butter in chunks; add to drained, hot beans. Stir in sugar, mustard, molasses and salt to taste. Fold sour cream into the mixture carefully.  Place in a two-quart casserole or bean pot and bake 45 minutes at 350º F., uncovered.  Makes 8 servings.

Note:  Baby limas cook in less time than traditional Boston-style beans.
