    This is 100% getting added to my recipe list for next week. I even already have the ingredients on hand–yay

    Yield: 4 servings

    Ingredients

    * ¼cup extra-virgin olive oil
    * 3 fat garlic cloves, thinly sliced
    * 3 tablespoons tomato paste
    * 2 (15-ounce) cans white beans (such as cannellini or Great Northern) or chickpeas, drained and rinsed – black beans are very good, too
    * ½ cup hot water
    * Salt and black pepper
    * ⅓ pound mozzarella, coarsely grated (about 1⅓ cups**)**

    Directions

    * **Step 1** – Heat oven to 475 degrees. In a 10-inch ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high. Fry the garlic until it’s lightly golden, about 1 minute. Stir in the tomato paste (be careful of splattering) and fry for 30 seconds, reducing the heat as needed to prevent the garlic from burning.
    * **Step 2** – Add the beans, water and generous pinches of salt and pepper and stir to combine. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top, then bake until the cheese has melted and browned in spots, 5 to 10 minutes. If the top is not as toasted as you’d like, run the skillet under the broiler for a minute or 2. Serve at once.

    We make this at my house all the time!!! I’m talking once a week sometimes. Bonus add-ins are gnocchi, random veggies, and ground meats. They store really well, too.
