SMOKY BEANS AND GREENS ON TOAST
Beans and greens are great on almost every carb: in tortillas as tacos, over rice, on flatbread. They're also good without any carb at all, served in a bowl as a side. But whenever skillet-fried toast is an option, I take it. This is dinner food for me, but it also makes a good brunch with a fried egg on each plate.

Steps:
- Heat a large, heavy (preferably cast-iron) skillet over medium. Brush the bread on both sides with the olive oil. Lay the bread in the skillet and cook, pressing occasionally with a spatula, until crisp and golden brown, about 90 seconds per side. (If your slices are large, you may have to do this in two batches.) Set the bread aside.
- Heat a Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring frequently, until it has browned a little and rendered at least a tablespoon of fat, about 4 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until it has softened and turned golden, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic, paprika, thyme (if using), red pepper flakes, and, if you're using canned beans, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and cook, stirring, for a minute or two.
- Add the slightly wet kale in batches, using tongs to stir the leaves into the onion mixture; wait for one handful of kale to wilt and shrink before adding the next. When the last of the greens has been added, add the beans and broth. Raise the heat and let the beans and greens simmer for a minute or two, just to warm the beans and bring the flavors together. Taste and add more kosher salt if necessary.
- Serve the greens and beans over the toast in wide, shallow bowls, dusted with a little more smoked paprika.
GREENS AND BEANS
We serve this along with steak and a baked potato. You can drizzle some extra-virgin olive oil on top before serving. Serve with crusty Italian bread. Navy beans work in this, also.

Steps:
- Pour enough water into a large pot to be about 2 inches deep; bring to a boil. Stir 1 teaspoon salt into the boiling water; add escarole. Cook the escarole at a boil, pushing the escarole further into the water as it wilts, until it is fork-tender, 3 to 5 minutes; drain.
- Pour olive oil into the pot and place over medium heat. Cook and stir garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes in hot oil until the garlic is soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir drained escarole and cannellini beans into the garlic mixture; cook and stir until the beans are hot, 5 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the mixture just before serving.

QUICK BEANS AND GREENS FOR 2
Two people really don't need a dining table cluttered with serving bowls but when I plate our meals, running back for seconds is annoying. My solution - see what sides I can combine to serve at the table and reduce my evening dish-washing. ;-) Any combination of _beans and greens_ works - I love it with canned turnip greens (which I tell DH is spinach since he's "greens picky" but can't really tell the difference in any of them)

- Boil the escarole for 5 minutes to par cook. You may need to do it in batches so as not to overload the pot. Drain and set aside. Note: you can also just add the greens raw in later steps but I learned to par cook them first.
- Add 3 cloves of whole garlic and crushed red pepper flakes to taste (the more you add the spicier it will be- I encourage you to at least add a little). Stir and turn the garlic often until it is golden brown (keep an eye on it, if it burns you'll have to clean the pan and start over again).
- Once the garlic cloves have been removed, add the beans, broth and using a garlic press, add the remaining garlic cloves into the pan. Cook for a couple minutes stirring frequently.

- Add garlic, crushed red pepper, and black pepper to skillet; place over medium heat. (This will heat oil slowly, and allow garlic to bloom without burning.) Once garlic is sizzling, cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened and fragrant, but isn’t browning, about 1 minute, 30 seconds.
- Add beans; cook, stirring once or twice, until beans start to brown in places, about 5 minutes. Stir in water and salt.
