Mary Me Butterbeans

Cuisines: Italian
Courses: Entree

1 cup raw cashews, soaked

1 - 2 cups hot water (to soak cashews, err on side of too much water)

olive oil

1 onion

4 - 8 cloves of garlic

calabrian chili paste or chili flakes

1 tsp paprika

0.66 cups chopped sundried tomatoes

0.25 cups tomato paste

2 cups vegetable broth

1 tsp oregano

1 tsp basil

4 cans butter beans

4 cups sliced kale

fresh basil

lemon juice

Soak cashews in enough boiling water to cover. Add more if it all gets absorbed.
Cook onions, garlic, chili paste, and paprika in olive oil at a medium heat until onions are translucent (3-5 minutes).
Pour in the vegetable broth, then stir in the Italian seasoning, drained and rinsed butter beans, and sliced kale. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer until the kale is cooked (about 5 minutes).
Add in the cashew cream. Lightly simmer until the sauce thickens.
Finish with basil and lemon juice if you have them.
