Bean Pot
by Juli
(Savannah, GA)
Ideally this should be served with a chewy, crusty foccacia bread to scoop up the beans and soak up the delicious juices.
Ingredients
2 cans diced tomatoes with juice
6-8 cloves garlic, diced (or put through the garlic press)
1-2 tsp Italian seasoning (I like Penzey's pasta sprinkle)
1 can white beans, drained and mostly rinsed
3-4 T butter
salt and pepper to taste
Method
Saute garlic gently in butter for 5 minutes, until it's soft and fragrant. Use very low heat to avoid burning the garlic. Add all other ingredients and simmer for another 5 minutes.
