Just ok I can see where this could be quite versatile but as is (if you fallow the directions as I did without changing anything) its rather bland. Texture is good time to fix was quite quick....even with cooking my own dry beans. But the flavor was just bland. it defiantly needs... something. Pros: it was quick and simple to make Cons: quite bland
It came out great an alternative to a meaty meal. The guest were overpowered by the white wine though. And next time I will use the suggestion of adding tomato sauce. Laugh MD
Really good pasta sauce. Good taste and texture.
This was AMAZING!! and so affordable!! I made a few alterations: I used a dry rose wine (its all I had) I used cannelini beans I used a bit of red pepper flakes I used a whole wheat penne rigate I used no salt added diced tomatoes I added about a half a cup of the pasta cooking water to the sauce Oh and I added some extra parmesan reggiano into the pasta once I mixed it all together and then more on top!:) I highly recommend this recipe!!
This is so simple to make yet delicious and impressive to guests. Even my kids (4 7 10) enjoyed it. The ingredients are very accessible and are always in my pantry or fridge. A sure keeper -- and I've already sent it out to several friends. Anonymous Mission KS
Very good! I made this today and it was perfect! Pros: Different and flavorful
This is one of my favorites! I made it quite often. Even my meat and potatoes husband likes it!
Nutritious and delicious! Will make again! No overwhelming flavors here - just the right blend for a great weekday dish for your family! I felt good about making this for my family because its nutrient rich with veggies beans and beans. I paired it with arugula salad and roma tomatoes as well as a sour dough roll. Will definitely make this again! Pros: vegetables beans whole grains - your mom would be proud! Cons: onions make me cry:/
YUM! I made this for myself and only cooked 1/2 the package of pasta and evenly split the bean mixture over it it turned out to be the perfect portions for one another. This gave me dinner and lunch which for me is economical on my budget. I used a can of diced tomatoes with roasted garlic & onions in place of 1/2 an onion and 4 cloves of garlic. I think that helped cut down on some of the taste you can get with straight onion & garlic and would definitely do that again. I also used separate cans of pinto kidney and garbanzo beans instead of salad beans since I typically have those on hand already in my pantry. Will absolutely keep this in my lineup of dinner selections! Pros: Healthy meatless tasty plenty of beany protein Cons: Adjust your measurements
