This was very easy and quite tasty. I used the refrigerated minced garlic, browning it in the oil as directed. I did add 1 minute to the wine and bean saute time and then I cooked an additional 2 minutes after the cover was removed to reach the doneness that we like and to absorb the excess liquid. I added about 1/2 of a chopped red bell pepper when I removed the lid, just because I needed to use it up. It was a nice addition for flavor as well as presentation. I paired nicely with grilled pesto salmon and red potatoes topped with a butter and green onion sauce.

I'm a 24 year old who works in the Chicago theater community. I have a little bit of a food obsession and love to plan meals, cook for myself, cook for my girlfriend, and cook for large groups of people.
My friends and I have a weekly "Food Club" where I make them food and they bring me booze. It's pretty much awesome- I get to cook and eat AND get free beer. It changes weekly depending what's cooking, but we have Grill Club, Chili Club, Taco Club, Soup Club- you get the idea.
