TUSCAN WHITE BEANS

Steps:

• Cook 2 smashed garlic cloves and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes in olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, 1 minute. Add 1 chopped plum tomato and 1 sprig rosemary and cook 2 minutes. Add 2 cans drained, rinsed cannellini beans and cook, partially smashing the beans with a spoon, 5 minutes. Remove the rosemary. Stir in 1/2 cup water and some chopped parsley; season with salt. Sprinkle with parmesan and broil until golden. Drizzle with olive oil.

SUNNY'S EASY WHITE BEAN AND MUSHROOM SOUP

Steps:

• In a medium pot on medium-high heat, add the olive oil, mushrooms, onion cubes and thyme. Saute until the mushrooms are tender and wilted, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the peppers and cook until they soften, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add the mustard and move it around the pot so it basically coats everything and disappears. Add the stock and beans. Lower to a simmer and cover. Let cook, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove the sprig of thyme, then add the kale, if using, and stir. Serve with a spritz of lemon and a shake of hot sauce.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium. Add scallions, garlic, and oregano; cook, stirring frequently, until scallions begin to soften, about 3 minutes.
• Stir in broth and beans; cook until heated through, about 4 minutes. Using a wooden spoon or potato masher, lightly mash some of the beans to thicken the soup. Stir in lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Before serving, sprinkle with Parmesan.
