Ingredients

Cooking spray

2 spray(s)

Olive oil

2 tsp(s)

Onion

2 large, thinly sliced

Kosher salt

2 tsp(s), divided

Minced garlic

2 tsp(s)

White wine

¼ cup(s), dry

Canned cannellini beans

38 oz, rinsed and drained

Canned diced tomatoes

Fresh lemon juice

1½ tsp(s)

Unsalted butter

2 tbsp(s)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Coat a 10- X 6-inch glass casserole dish with cooking spray.
  2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onions and 1 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring frequently, until softened and onions begin to brown, about 15 minutes. Stir in garlic; cook for 1 minute. Stir in wine; cook until evaporated. Add beans, tomatoes, spinach, rosemary, and lemon juice; cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through and spinach has wilted, about 1 to 2 minutes. Spoon mixture into prepared dish; set aside.
  3. Microwave butter in a large microwave-safe bowl until melted. Add bread crumbs, cheese and remaining 1 teaspoon salt; stir until completely combined. Spoon crumb mixture over bean mixture; bake, uncovered, until browned and bubbly, about 20 to 25 minutes. Yields 1/6th of casserole per serving.

Notes

Make this vegan by swapping in your favourite vegan cheese and butter substitutes. You could also make this dish in individual ramekins for a pretty presentation and easy portion control.
