Makes 2 generous servings
(I highly recommend doubling the recipe because it's just terrific.)
Husband-Tested in Alice's Kitchen
Beans and greens may sound a bit boring, but THIS beans and greens dish is out of this world delicious. This is quick and easy enough to make on a weeknight. I was sorry I didn't double the recipe because we ate it in one take and now I don't have leftovers for lunch. Live and learn. Well, you and yours will absolutely love this dinner.
Ingredients:
1 (16 oz.) butter beans*, rinsed and drained
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 shallot, diced (I used ¼ of a red onion.)
1 teaspoon minced garlic
2 Tablespoon sun-dried tomatoes in oil, chopped
1-2 Tablespoon harissa**
1 cup full fat coconut milk
1/3 cup vegetable broth (or more)
2 teaspoon garlic powder
¼ to ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
¼ cup nutritional yeast
Handful of shredded kale or spinach
Kosher or sea salt, to taste (I used ½ teaspoon.)
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste (I used ¼ teaspoon.)

Instructions:
Be sure to have all the ingredients prepared and at the ready. This dish comes together quickly. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced shallots and cook for just 1-2 minutes. Next, add minced garlic and chopped sundried tomatoes. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes.
Add the drained butter beans and harissa paste, followed by the coconut milk and veggie broth.
Stir in the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and nutritional yeast.
Bring to a simmer for 2-3 minutes so that it begins to thicken.
Add the shredded kale and let simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Once the kale is wilted and the stew has thickened to your liking, remove it from the heat and enjoy with toasted sourdough bread.

Notes:
*If you can’t find butter beans you can use chickpeas, cannellini beans or navy beans instead. (I buy butter beans, Bush brand, by the case on Amazon.)
**Harissa is a condiment paste made of peppers, garlic, spices, etc. It can be pretty hot and spicy, however, I buy a brand called Mina Harissa Mild, and my husband, who is a panty-waist when it comes to spice, can handle it just fine as you can see in the picture.
