If you like bold and spicy flavors, then you have to try this Cannellini Beans with Tomatoes and Plant Based Sausage savory dish. The cannellini beans have an earthy flavor and a meaty texture. The tomatoes provide a great source of lycopene, and the plant based sausage was spicy and delicious. I added in some fresh spinach and roasted garlic to make this savory dish.
I love to buy my fresh veggies, plant based meat substitutes, and other key recipe ingredients from Whole Foods Market, Wegmans and Sprouts Farmers Market. I used the Beyond Meat brand of plant based sausage. If you would like to purchase this cast iron pan, then click my Shop Page or this cast iron pan link.
