High-Protein Marry Me Butter Beans
We're taking our butter beans up a notch with this High-Protein Marry Me Butter Beans recipe! It's creamy and delicious and packed with SO MUCH protein- you're going to love it! I’ve had the idea for this recipe in my head for so long and it turned out even better than I expected.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
In a blender, combine HALF a can of the beans (about ⅔ cup), the silken tofu, nutritional yeast, and the broth. Blend until creamy and no chunks remain.
- Step 2
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and add in the olive oil. Once oil is hot, add in the garlic and saute for 2 minutes or until it’s fragrant. Add the tofu mixture and stir to combine.
- Step 3
Adjust the heat to medium-low, and add the butter beans to the skillet. Allow the sauce to come to a low simmer for about 3 minutes, then add in the butter, chili flakes, thyme, and oregano.
- Step 4
Add the butter and sun-dried tomatoes and season to taste with salt and pepper and let the sauce simmer and thicken for a few more minutes. Serve as is or with crusty bread. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs such as basil or parsley. ENJOY!
Notes
- Step 5
If you can’t find butterbeans, you can use any canned beans in these. I’ve tried this with chickpeas and it’s delicious!
