Three-Minute Skillet Beans & Greens

How to Make Three-Minute Skillet Beans & Greens

You probably have everything you need to make this incredibly easy plant-based dish. Serve as as quick and easy meal for 2 on a busy night, or split into 4 servings to serve as a hearty side dish. This dish is packed with fiber from the beans and greens, and gets tons of flavor from a simple combo of curry powder and ground ginger. If you don’t have fresh spinach, you could use frozen spinach, or sub in another green like kale or collard greens (heartier greens will need to cook for a few minutes longer).

To make a saucier dish, reserve the liquid from the canned beans and add some to the pan with the spinach. Add a splash of coconut milk for even more decadence.
