Bell Pepper With Navy Beans

Total Time: 15 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 1
• 1 orange bell pepper
• 1/2 cup canned navy beans
• 1/2 cup water
• nonstick cooking spray
• salt and pepper, to taste
• garlic powder, to taste
• fresh basil (dried works, too)

Recipe

• 1 cut pepper into bite-size pieces. usually, i cut it into strips, and then cut each strip into 3 or 4 pieces, depending on the length.
• 2 spray frying pan with non-stick spray, and add pepper.
• 3 add beans, and turn on medium/medium-high heat.
• 4 let heat, then add seasoning. i just shake on the salt, pepper and garlic powder so that the pepper and beans have a light covering (don't want to over do it, though!). add as much basil as desired-- i personally add up to 5 basil leaves.
• 5 mix ingredients together, lightly, making sure peppers get most of the heat.
• 6 add about 1/4 cup of water to the mixture, to prevent burning, and let cook for about 10-15 minutes, or until peppers are tender, adding another 1/4 cup of water about half-way through. take off heat when any remaining water has completely evaporated-- the more you can cook it without water (without burning), the better.
• 7 put mixture in bowl, and enjoy.
