Escarole and Cannellini Beans

Escarole – Eat Your Greens

If you have never tried Escarole you are going to get ready to check it off your bucket list. I bet you didn’t even know it was on your list. Just kidding.

This is a staple dish and you can make it very quickly. It’s great as a main dish or a side dish or even add more broth to it and you have a soup.

I love to teach my clients to cook a large batch of something and then have it on hand for the rest of the week so you can “grab and go”.

Escarole is a lettuce and a member of the chicory  family. It contains high concentrations of vitamins A & C. Each 1-cup serving of escarole is rich in dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals and antioxidant compounds.

Escarole and Cannellini Beans

That’s it, simple easy and delicious. This dish will make about 3-4 servings.

I have taken it and divided it up into containers for the week to use as a side dish for my lunches. Sometimes I even eat it for breakfast.
