Prep:
Cook:
Vegetarian bean stew with a Moorish twist. Quick n easy. Really healthy and low fat. Serve with chunks of crusty or toasted bread. If you can afford the fat, serve with grated cheese but I add a dollop of low fat soft cheese to mine. If you haven't got the beans in the cupboard, any beans will do.
