Creamy White Beans With Sun-Dried Tomatoes
The pantry can supply a meal with more texture than a bowl of noodles. Jennie Alley’s Marry Me White Bean Skillet at Budget Bytes uses canned white beans with sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, cream, Parmesan and basil. The beans remain the main ingredient, while the sauce carries the seasoning through the pan.
Our choice would be to serve it as a small supper with a separate plate of bitter leaves dressed simply. Keep the skillet on a trivet in the middle of the table and let everyone spoon their own portion. A sharp salad gives the creamy dish a different companion without making a second cooked recipe necessary.
The source lists a 25-minute total, which makes this a useful candidate for an evening when cooking needs a clear stopping point. Check the ingredients before starting: oil-packed tomatoes and the preparation of the spinach both matter to the version Alley developed. Follow the full recipe for the method and substitutions rather than improvising from this introduction.
