Today I am going to make a recipe with a cup of white beans that I left soaking overnight.

Wash and drain soaked beans. Add beans to stockpot and cover beans with water. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 1 hour.
Meanwhile saute a chopped onion in 2tbls olive oil. Drain beans and mix in onion, 1 can of chopped tomatoes, and a package of Simply Organic garden vegetable spaghetti sauce. Follow directions on the package and in minutes you will have a spaghetti sauce.
I am trying to eat a low glycemic diet so I will serve the sauce with quimoa instead of spaghetti with some zuchenni saute on the side.
If you are curious about low glycemic eating look up David Ludwigs' book "Fighting the Food Fight." It is excellent.

Eating this way really helps me save money and be healthy. I estimate the cost per serving for this recipe to be $ 1.45
