Ingredients

Instructions

  1. If cooking dry beans, add the bay leaves to the cooking liquid.

  2. Add oil to a pot large enough to hold all the ingredients. If using the bacon, fry it in the oil, then proceed with the recipe.

  3. Gently saute the onion and shallot until translucent and soft.

  4. Add the garlic and cook an additional minute.

  5. Add the beans, tomatoes, stock, rosemary, thyme and bay if you didn't cook the beans with the bay.

  6. Stir in the stock and simmer for about 30 minutes.

  7. Mix in the parsley, lemon juice and crushed chili.

Just found your site while looking for exactly this, a savoury bean recipe. This is absolutely delicious. I’m trying cut out sugar in our diet and this is SO good, we both decided we prefer it over canned or homemade ‘sweet’ baked beans.
Thx for the recipe!

Made these today -- ah-maz-ing! Meant to save them for an easy dinner, but fortunately it's a nice, big recipe so daughter and I were able to sneak a bowl for lunch. Definitely a keeper. The fresh herbs really make it.

I rarely have beans because I find them very heavy but I definitely will need to try this one out as you put in lemon juice! I can totally see how that would brighten up the beans and cut that heaviness!These look so comforting too!! :)

Erica ★ 5.0/5

These savory navy beans sound wonderful! Just what we need here in this cold weather! I don't always have fresh herbs on hand, especially in the winter, do you think substituting dried thyme and rosemary would be acceptable occasionally?

Alyssa ★ 5.0/5

Yay navy beans!! I'm a big fan of navy beans. They're definitely underutilized in the culinary community, so I was SUPER excited to see this recipe! It looks so delicious and easy! A giant pot of beans ready in less than an hour with minimal clean up?? Yes, please! Can't wait to make this!

Did you make this recipe?

Thanks for rating!
