Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil 15 mL
  • ½ medium white onion diced, or yellow onion
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 cups zucchini about 2 medium zucchini, chopped
  • 2 cups marinara sauce 450 g
  • 1 oz can Navy beans 425 g
  • 1 cup kale chopped
  • ¼ cup basil chopped, fresh
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. Stewify: Stir in marinara sauce and beans. Continue cooking, covered, for 5 minutes until marinara sauce is hot and gently simmering.
  3. Greens: Stir in chopped kale and basil. Cook until kale wilts, about 2 minutes.
  4. 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!
