Really Yum Butter Beans

Butter beans are one of the best pantry staples there are. High in protein, fiber and folates, they should make a regular appearance in your meals. These butter beans are so easy to make, require very simple ingredients but taste like you know what you’re doing. We use one can of beans to make a quick side for one or two people, but double or triple the recipe depending on how many people you’re feeding.

Serve them on a thick slice of sourdough for a quick dinner, or for something more hearty, serve with a grilled piece of meat, fish, or a tray of roasted vegetables.

Take them to a BBQ when you’ve been asked to bring a dish, and everyone will ask you for the recipe!
