Ingredients

  • 1 can cannellini beans (or ½ cup dried, fully cooked)
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 large zucchini, chopped
  • 1 Tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1 tsp dried)
  • 1 Tbsp fresh oregano, chopped (or 1 tsp dried)
  • Sea salt to taste
  • 2 Tbsp white wine

Directions

  1. Rinse and drain the beans. If you are using dried beans, they need to be fully cooked before you begin. How To Cook Dried Beans
  2. Heat a large pan to medium and sauté the garlic in olive oil until it softens. Add the zucchini to the pan, stir to coat in the garlic-infused oil, and allow it to cook until it becomes very soft.
  3. Stir the beans into the mix, and add the rosemary, oregano and salt to over them. Pour the wine over the pan, letting it sizzle. Allow this to simmer for at least 10 minutes for the flavors to enter the beans.
  4. Serve this Tuscan cannellini beans recipe on its own, over a bed of spinach or rice.
