Borlotti Bean Goodness bowl

Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • Olive Oil
  • 1 large onion diced
  • 6 cloves of Garlic diced or garlic paste
  • 1 can cannelloni Beans rinsed and drained
  • 2 tablespoons coconut milk
  • 1 tsp dried thyme or big handful from the garden
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Sprig Rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1/2 lime or lemon
  • 5 cups vegetable stock
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Veggies whatever you fancy ( carrots, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, capsicum, zucchini)
  • In a large pot over medium heat, splash in some olive oil and sauté the onions, garlic and the hard veggies such as carrots & celery. Stir and allow to cook until softened.
  • Stir in white beans, coconut milk, thyme, pepper flakes & Italian seasoning. Combine and then pour in vegetable stock. Season with salt, add the bay leaves and sprig of rosemary.
  • Bring pot to a low boil and allow to cook for 10 minutes. Add all the soft green veggies on top such as broccoli, zucchini, cauliflower & capsicum. Put the lid on and lightly steam veggies on the top.
  • Serve up when the veggies are the way you like them. I think its best to keep them a bit on the crunchy side for extra nutrient benefits.
  • Once served in your bowl squeeze in a bit of lime or lemon and you have yourself a nourishing bowl full of veggies and some plant based protein.
