These beans are so much more than just a bowl of beans, they create and contribute to a great number of dishes and are a great new Little Jewel from the Recipe Membership Collection.
SIMPLE ITALIAN FOOD
These beans come together in a flash and are a favorite that I have adapted from Canal House PRONTO! 2013. To keep things simple, use canned beans drained and rinsed. Place the beans in a bowl then start mixing in the other ingredients. With so few ingredients in the recipe using the highest quality ingredients does really make a difference. As you can guess, a really good olive oil is a must! Novello extra-virgin olive oil was my choice as it is in season. I usually find some at Trader Joe’s but only in January, as this olive oil is an early harvest. Fruity green olives and green grass overtones, yum!
TOAST WITH BEANS & SAGE
Another way to use these delicious beans is to top thick slices of country bread with the hot beans and add fried sage leaves. Very Italian. Savor the simple recipes from the Recipe Membership Collection.
As always, enjoy. B
