I see a "Greek" White Bean Soup recipe, and am surprised that it doesn't
use gigantes white beans. They are similar to lima beans except really
big, but have a wonderful, rich taste. In the past, I've made a recipe
with these beans and tomato sauce, similar to

.
A lot of really flavorful beans are neglected, unfortunately.
Also, I see that spinach pie is not on the list. My mom used to make it
when I was growing up. A recipe is here:
