Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp olive oil 15 mL
- ½ medium white or yellow onion diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 3 cups chopped zucchini about 2 medium zucchini*
- 2 cups marinara sauce 450 g
- 1 oz can Navy beans 425 g
- 1 cup chopped kale
- ¼ cup chopped fresh basil
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Flavor Base: Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and zucchini to the pan, cooking until onion and zucchini are a bit soft, about 5 minutes.
- Stewify: Stir in marinara sauce and beans. Continue cooking, covered, for 5 minutes until marinara sauce is hot and gently simmering.
- Greens: Stir in chopped kale and basil. Cook until kale wilts, about 2 minutes.
- Serve: Season with salt and pepper, as needed, then serve warm!
Notes
- *I like using one zucchini and one yellow squash for a fun color variation.
- Storage: When it comes to leftovers, keep extra stew stored in the fridge and enjoy within 2-3 days. It actually makes a great meal prep option because it tastes even better when the ingredients have had time to all blend together!
