Let’s make it
- 01
Wash the tomatoes, spinach, parsley and lemon. Rinse the beans.

Warm olive oil in a skillet. Add halved tomatoes and cook for 4 minutes.
- 03
Stir in beans and a splash of water. Heat until hot throughout, then fold in spinach.

Divide between bowls and finish with parsley and lemon juice.
Crush a few beans against the pan for a naturally creamy texture.
Make tomorrow easier
Keep washed greens and rinsed beans ready for quick assembly. Refrigerate perishable foods within 2 hours (1 hour above 90°F). Use refrigerated cooked leftovers within 3 to 4 days; freeze later-week portions. Reheat cooked leftovers to 165°F. Food storage guidance.
