My Grandmother makes this during the Thanksgiving holidays, but it's welcome all year long.
It was pretty for the holidays but I think that I was the only person at Thanksgiving Dinner that appreciated the lima beans. I will stick to my usual recipe of green beans with almonds the next time.

Made as written except that I only let it chill for an hour originally. Here's the deal, if you only let it sit for an hour your green beans stay bright green. The leftovers were refrigerated overnight and the green beans turned dark and looked like a canned green bean. The salad was excellent and one I will most definitely make again. The leftover was excellent too but just looked a lot different so keep that in mind when making this. Also note that the recipe did not specify but your frozen green beans need thawed as well. If you wanted to make this really easy on yourself you could always use the bottled Italian dressing. Better yet, zesty Italian.
