2 small-medium onions1 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil 2 cans White Kidney Beans (yield 4 cups)2 cups water1/2 tsp salt1/2 cup Tomato Paste and/or Pepper Paste*
*To reduce the fat yield you can fry the onions in a bit of water, but EVOO is actually very heart healthy.
*You can also eliminate the salt for lower sodium, and/or boil your own beans.
1. Chop & fry the onions in EVOO for 2-3 minutes.
2. Add the Tomato and/or Pepper Paste & stir in.
3. Rinse the Beans very well and add.
4. Add 2 cups water (approximately - the colour should be a rich red - not too dark but not too watered down either)
5. Bring to a boil & reduce heat to med-low.
6. Boil for 5 minutes until the foam starts to dissipate.
Yield 6 * 1 cup servings. You can eat it as a soup, or serve it over a bed of rice.
