SAUTEED SPINACH AND WHITE BEANS

Steps:

• Heat a large saute pan over medium heat, and add olive oil. Add diced onion, and cook until translucent, about 2 minutes.

BBQ-FLAVORED WHITE BEANS WITH SAUSAGE AND SPINACH

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a wide skillet or stir-fry pan. Add the onion and sauté over medium heat until translucent.
• Add the garlic and sausage; continue to sauté, stirring frequently, until everything is golden, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the beans and barbecue sauce. Cook until piping hot, about 4 minutes.
• Add the spinach and cover. When it wilts down a bit, stir it in. Continue to cook for just a minute or so longer. Serve at once.
• A salad with a hint of sweetness balances the hearty, bold flavors in this dish. Choose Fruitful Red Slaw (page 177) or Creole Coleslaw (page 178). To make the meal even heartier, add some cooked quinoa or microwaved sweet potatoes.
• If this is truly an emergency meal, stick with the basics-microwaved Yukon gold or sweet potatoes and a simple green salad.
