Limas & Franks
This recipe is from a cookbook titled Casserole Cook Book by Better Homes & Gardens, printed in 1961. This recipe sounds very good, on my to make and taste list. Link to the Shortcut is listed in the Recipe Notes section.

Notes
High cost per serving based on the lima beans. I have seen dry beans on Lazada a few times but do not have the exact cost of them, they were pricey however. They show up on Lazada once in a great while.
Shortcut: Tomato Sauce.
