From J.L. Fields essential Vegan Meal Prep, this great northern bean recipe is easy, affordable, extremely healthy, and (if you can believe it) delicious!
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil or 1/4 cup vegetable broth
1 small sweet onion, cut into half-moon slices
2 (14.5 oz) cans great northern beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup vegetable broth
2 teaspoons dried dill
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1. In a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Saute the onion slices for 3-5 minutes, until the onion is translucent.
2. Add the beans, broth, dill, salt (if using), and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
3. Transfer to a large storage container, or scoop 1/2 cup of beans into each of 6 storage containers. Let cool before sealing the lids.
Storage: Place the airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months. To thaw, refrigerate over-night. Reheat in the microwave for 1 1/2 to 3 minutes.
We serve this over baby kale or spinach, with a touch of extra olive oil as a dressing.
