How to Make Beans Tomatoes And Spinach
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and 1/2 cup chopped onion. Sauté for 3-5 minutes, until softened.
- Add 5 ounces of fresh spinach and 1/4 cup of water to the skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until spinach is wilted.
- Stir in 1 (15-ounce) can of drained and rinsed kidney beans (or your favorite bean!), 1 (14.5-ounce) can of diced tomatoes (undrained), and 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through and flavors have melded. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Serve warm and enjoy! Garnish with fresh herbs like basil or parsley, if desired.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
