Recipe

Hi! You could make this completely local if you buy some local beans and cook them ahead of time. Here it is:

1 Can (or equivalent cooked beans) white beans, or black eyes peas
3 small wild ramps (w/greens!) (If you do not have these, use 2 cloves of garlic)
2 handfuls of spinach
red pepper flakes
a bit of salt
a bit of oil (olive or sunflower for local)
Parmesan or other sharp, shredded cheese

Chop the leeks, and saute in oil over medium heat, then throw in the red pepper flakes and spinach. Let the spinach wilt a bit, then throw in your beans (DRAINED!) and salt. Pretty simple - just heat through, and maybe throw a bit of the cheese on top! SO good, quick healthy lunch! (It's what I am having today! :))

Love,

Adena
