we do a cannellini bean and sausage dish. fry some onion, garlic chilli and rosemary, brown it off, throw in the sausages (italian style yum yum) and then when that is browning off, throw in the beans (if from a tin drain first). and let it simmer for however long you like! yummy yummy! our girls love it too!

another fav is as a salad. so can of the beans (drained!) mixed with finely chopped garlic and onion, some parsely and whatever herbs you might have in the garden with some salt, chilli and good lashings of olive oil. this is super super yummy on toast OR stuffed into a french loaf....yummy!
