Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Salt
One 1-pound box pasta (I'm using gemelli)
1/4 cup oil (I'm using olive oil)
8 ounces lunch meat, sliced thin (I'm using salami)
2 cloves garlic, sliced
One 15-ounce can beans, rinsed (I'm using chickpeas)
2 cups fresh greens (I'm using spinach)
2 tablespoons grated hard cheese (I'm using Parmesan)
1 teaspoon chile flakes, optional

Steps:

Bring a pot of water to a boil and salt liberally. Drop the pasta in the water and give it a stir. Cook according to the package instructions for al dente. Reserve 3/4 cup of the pasta cooking water and then drain the pasta.
Meanwhile, heat a large saute pan over medium heat and add the oil. Once the oil is hot, add the lunch meat and cook until crisp. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, an additional minute. Add the beans and greens and cook, stirring, 1 minute more.
Add the pasta and reserved pasta water to the pan and simmer for 1 minute. Remove from the heat, toss in the cheese and chile flakes if using and serve.

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon olive oil
2 -3 tablespoons onions, chopped fine
1 (16 ounce) can pinto beans, drained
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon cumin
1/8 teaspoon pepper
4 eggs, cooked however you prefer. I prefer sunny side up, but scrambled or poached is just fine as well.

Steps:

In a small saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat.
Add onion. Saute 1-2 minutes or until soft.
Add beans, green chilies, chicken stock, garlic powder, cumin, and pepper-stir until combined.
With a potato masher, mash the mixture until most of the beans are in pieces. Its okay to leave them chunky, but mashing them helps make the beans thicker in the end.
Once mashed, bring bean mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low.
Simmer, stirring every 3-5 minutes, about 20-25 minutes, or until they are the consistency that you desire.
The beans will thicken a bit after cooling, so keep this in mind.
Top each portion of beans with an egg, and enjoy!
You may also serve this with cheese, avacado, and/or tortillas.
Delicious!
Note: Fresh garlic can be used in place of garlic powder.
