Here’s a fast & easy one-pot entree that tastes even better the next day. Serve it with a salad or sprouted grain bread (or both). Delicious!

The nutritional yeast helps give a “cheesy” flavour to this Italian-inspired bean dish.

Spicy Italian Beans

(Makes 4 servings)

Ingredients:

● 1 tbsp olive oil
● 4 cloves of garlic, minced
● 1 tsp red pepper flakes
● Sea salt
● 1-680 ml jar passata strained tomatoes
● ½ cup filtered water
● 2-19oz cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
● ½ cup fresh parsley, chopped
● ½ cup fresh basil, chopped
● 2 tbsp (or more) nutritional yeast

Directions:

1. In a medium pot over medium heat, heat the oil. Add the garlic, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt and sauté for about 1 minute, until the garlic starts to soften but not burn. Pour in the tomato sauce and ½ cup of water

2. Stir and reduce the heat to low, allowing the sauce to simmer for 10-15 minutes.

3. Stir the beans into the sauce and allow to warm for 5-10 minutes. Stir in the parsley and nutritional yeast and cook for another 5-7 minutes.

Serve and enjoy!
