Although I have gardened most of my life this is the first year I have
tried growing pole beans----First I planted to many---Second I have a
large number of over grown pods full of lovely plump beans----Does anyone
have a suggestions or receipt to use these beans or should I simply
compost them seams a shame to waste them... ??

Shell them and cook as you would lima beans. Compost the pods.
