Savory Italian Bean Recipe and it is low carb and high fiber, too!
The secret to this recipe are to buy the best canned beans that you can. I have two favorites: AnnaLise's Cannellini (navy beans) and Truitt's Navy Beans (found at food co-op stores). Of course, dried beans work, but this is an Easy Peasy recipe after all.Ingredients

You will need a flat frying pan. This recipe takes less than 20 minutes.
Method
