I picked up some beautiful gigante beans at the Grand Central Market yesterday and came up with this delicious recipe that incorporated baby spinach that I had on hand. I used baby spinach, but you may use any type of spinach that you prefer.

  • 1 Medium Onion (Halved & Thinly Sliced)
  • 6 Garlic Cloves (Minced)
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 2 Cups Gigante Beans Or Large White Lima Beans

  • 14.5 Ounces Diced Tomatoes
  • 1 Tablespoon Basil (Chopped)
  • 4 Slices Prosciutto (Chopped)
  • 3 Cups Torn Fresh Spinach
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Pepper
  1. In large-size skillet cook onions and garlic in olive oil, over a medium-high heat, for 4 minutes until tender. Add red bell pepper and sauté for 1 minute. Stir in beans.
  2. Drain tomatoes, reserving liquid. Stir in tomatoes and basil. Cook for 1 minute. Add reserved tomato liquid and chopped prosciutto. Cook 3 minutes. Add kosher salt and pepper
