Cannellini Beans with Tomatoes and Garlic
Serves
4 – 6
Preparation Time
45 – 60 minutes
Ingredients
4 – 14 oz. cans of cannellini beans, drained OR 4 cups cooked beans
6 – 8 garlic cloves, chopped
4 – 5 medium sized tomatoes, cut in 1/4ths, or 1/8ths
8 – 10 Tbs olive oil, enough to cover the bottom of the pan
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 tsp herbes de Provence
Method
Sauté garlic in olive oil in medium sized skillet, or sauté pan over medium heat for 1 minute. Do not brown.
Add tomatoes, salt and pepper, and herbes de Provence. Stir together and cook until tomatoes soften and lose their shape about 4 – 6 minutes. Stir occasionally to keep from burning.
Add beans and stir together with tomato-garlic mixture. Cook until beans are heated through about 5 minutes or so.
