Absolutely delicious, simple, and cheap. I will make this in the future but probably add some Parmesan on top as well. The beans are so creamy and zesty!!

We have made this recipe at home many times. It is always a big hit. The leftovers freeze well for a quick lunch at work. It’s nice to have such a satisfying vegetarian recipe to eat!

This is one of my favorite recipes for a quick and easy meal for those times you’re tempted to just boil pasta and throw on some sauce but want something more substantial. I use cannellini beans since butter beans aren’t readily available. When I have it on hand, I toss in a few handfuls of fresh spinach. This also makes fantastic leftovers.

A perfect example of what Budget Bytes does best: an easy, customizable and delicious meal. If you’re reading reviews and trying to decide if it’d be a hit at your house- my meat-loving husband and picky toddler both love this dinner. I recommend adding a little fresh or frozen spinach and serving it with polenta but it’s awesome just as written.

I did a couple of things differently but the result was outstanding. This is now my #1 favorite non-meat recipe!!

I wanted a one pot meal so I added already cooked Swiss chard and kale from the night before into the mix. Instead of just mozzarella, I added parmesan/romano sprinkled on top and then added the chunks of mozzarella.

Onions and garlic are a big NO for me so I used fresh basil (about 1/4 cup), and a little thyme (1/2 teaspoon).

This was just great! Used gnocchi instead as I didn’t have beans on hand Also, I had mozzarella pearls that I sprinkled throughout.

Do you have an app for I-phone?

This has been a lifesaver for me so many times! It’s easy enough for when I’m completely drained after work, fast enough for when I’m hangry but want something more filling than toast, and cozy enough to be satisfying in and of itself. I’ve added zucchini or spinach, as others have suggested, which is also delicious, but the recipe as written is just about perfect as-is.

Oh my goodness this was delicious and brought me back to Italy instantly!!! It came together so quickly! I could have eaten a second portion but saving it for lunch. I added spinach and fresh basil just before serving, along side a whole grain toasted slice with a drizzle of olive oil and grated parmigiana. Fast, easy and inexpensive, adding this to my weekly meal plan! Thank you!

I’m also wondering if a slow cooker version is possible?

Thanks :)
