    I love, love LOVE beans!
    Today for lunch I made a huge batch of chili.

    I just used whatever I had on hand and threw it all in a giant pot along with some olive oil...
    A can of red kidney beans
    A can of tomatoes
    Frozen mixed veggies (I am a vegetableaholic. I add vegetables to every thing I make!)
    A couple handfuls of fresh spinach
    Toasted onions
    Tex Mex seasoning (I added in more as I went along, so I can't really tell you how much I used)


    And then I ate two bowls just like that :)

    Oh and I also add in beans to any pasta sauce I make.

    And yesterday I added some beans, toasted onions and spinach to plain old campbell's tomato soup.

    Sometimes I stir fry cabbage and beans together.

    Tuscan white bean and garlic soup - you can find the recipe on foodtv.com and look up Giada De Laurentis. I'd recommend modifying the recipe a bit and adding more beans and omitting the cream if you're looking for a lighter recipe If it's too thick, just add more chicken broth. Very delicious. Family's favorite!
