Vegetarian Baked Beans

Ingredients:

Olive oil                                  1 tablespoon

Onions, white                          ½ cup

Garlic, minced                         ½ tablespoon

Tomatoes, chopped                 2 to 3 cups (fresh or canned will be fine)

Vegetable stock                      ½ cup

Cannellini beans, canned        2 to 3 cups

Brown sugar                            1 to 2 tablespoons

Dijon mustard                         1 teaspoon

Sweet paprika                         1 teaspoon

Rosemary, chopped                1 sprig (stem removed)

Salt                                          Season to taste

Pepper, white                          Season to taste

To Prepare:

Peel, wash, and chop the onion finely. Do the same for the garlic. Wash core and chop the tomatoes roughly if fresh. If canned, just chop into roughly half an inch sized pieces. Remove the rosemary leaves from the stem and chop finely.

On a medium pan on medium heat, add the olive oil. Sauté the onions in the pan until translucent. Add the minced garlic and sauté until you smell that garlicky fragrance; don’t let it brown. Add the sweet paprika and rosemary and roast briefly.

Add the tomatoes, beans, and mustard and sauté briefly before adding the vegetable stock. Allow the ingredients to simmer until the beans are tender but not mushy. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
