I’ve seen this recipe all over social media. I watched a few videos and rummaged through my pantry. Here is my version. It’s simple and so tasty!
French onion beans
Ingredients
- Two onions, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon neutral oil or oil from sun-dried tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons garlic powder or 2 tablespoons garlic from a jar
- 1/4 cup diced sun-dried tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, or 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
Salt and pepper to taste - 2 15-ounce cans, cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
- 3/4 cup half-and-half
- 1/2 cup grated Italian cheese blend
Directions
- In a large skillet, add butter and oil.
- Once the butter and oil are melted and combined, add onions and sauté on low for about 10 minutes until onions become translucent.
- Add garlic/garlic powder, tomatoes, paprika, thyme, and stir to combine.
- Cover and cook on low, stirring occasionally for 25 to 35 minutes. Onions will become thick and jammy, and will continue to become translucent and lightly brown around the edges.
- Over medium heat, add beans, half-and-half, and cheese.
- Uncover and allow to cook for 5 to 10 minutes until it is melting and bubbly.
- Serve with crusty Italian bread, sourdough, or crackers of your choice.
These beans stay good in the fridge 3-4 days, however, they will not last that long. They are soo rich and smooth. And very filling,
You can make this recipe vegan by using dairy-free butter substitute, coconut milk, and dairy-free cheese.
National Ice Cream Day is next week!! I recommend that you download any apps required for these deals at least 1 day prior to ensure that you have the app and are all signed up for any clubs or offers. Not all of these offers are available in my specific area, but I included them because I have readers outside of San Diego.
This upcoming Wednesday, July 15, is National Give Something Away Day. This is a great opportunity to share things that you no longer need from your home. Here are several ways that I will be celebrating this day.
This week I’ve been binge-watching The Pitt and doing what seems like endless laundry.
