Lima and Green Bean Crostini

I got this idea from that show "Tyler's Ultimate" — he made a creamy bright green paste and spread them on toasts as a variation on bruschetta. For mine I blanched fresh lima beans and green beans, sauteed some onion and garlic, and pureed the combination with salt, pepper, and a little dab of mayonnaise. Then for a twist I dropped in a few leafs of mint in there, and garnished appropriately! This bread was toasted challah, but a savory French baguette would have been better (didn't have one!).
