BBQ-Flavored White Beans with Sausage and Spinach
I fully admit that this recipe screams “emergency dinner!” But it’s spicy, hearty, high in protein, and best of all, ready for the table in about twenty minutes. Some nights, you need a main dish like that, and this one never disappoints.
Ingredients
6 to 8 servings
Step 1
Heat the oil in a wide skillet or stir-fry pan. Add the onion and sauté over medium heat until translucent.
Step 2
Add the garlic and sausage; continue to sauté, stirring frequently, until everything is golden, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in the beans and barbecue sauce. Cook until piping hot, about 4 minutes.
Step 4
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.
Menu Suggestions
Step 5
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.
Step 6
If this is truly an emergency meal, stick with the basics—microwaved Yukon gold or sweet potatoes and a simple green salad.
