I love this recipe for this time of year. It’s freezing outside, you’re kinda lazy after cooking over Christmas so you just want to make something really quick and tasty, you’re trying to be healthy and lose the few extra “lbs” you’ve gained over the festive season and you have very little in the fridge. This recipe suits all these needs, it’s really wholesome and comforting and most importantly simple to make.

what you need for 2:

2 x 400g cans of cannellini beans

1 garlic clove

1 red or white onion

tsp dried chilli

2 vine tomatoes

1 tbsp olive oil

6 sage leaves

sea salt and black pepper

what to do:

chop your onions and garlic:
