👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Drain and rinse the cannellini beans. Finely mince the garlic cloves and roughly chop the fresh sage leaves.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sage leaves, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
3. Stir in the canned chopped tomatoes and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
4. Add the drained cannellini beans to the skillet. Season generously with salt and black pepper to taste.
5. Simmer for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beans are thoroughly heated through and have absorbed the flavors. If too dry, add a splash of water or vegetable broth.
6. Serve hot as a side dish or a light main course, optionally garnished with extra fresh sage.
