Beans & Greens

Image
Wow, it has been far too long since my last post. Things have been so busy here, so I've been relying on my old standbys for reliable meals. But this week, I needed something different for my lunch. I put my thinking cap on and came up with a delicious one-pot meal that took less than 15 minutes to make but satisfied my appetite. We'll call this one "Beans & Greens". I decided to use cannellini beans, which are medium-sized white beans, creamy and nutty in flavor and texture. Beans are a versatile food, loaded with fiber and protein, Vitamin A & iron. To add flavor and texture, I paired the legume with vidalia onion, garlic, spinach, lemon juice, and a hit of Parmesan cheese. The end result was simple yet decadent and kept me full all afternoon. Make this dish as a light lunch, or a side to go along with dinner. Bon appetit!
