Recipe Review: White beans with bacon and herbs

Have you ever wondered how to make white beans addictive? Add bacon. Check out my thoughts on this recipe by jocooks.com below. I made this recipe for my book review of Fireborne by Mckenzie Hunter.

braised lamb with white beans and sautéed vegetables

Ingredients:

  • Bacon
  • Garlic
  • Basil
  • Rosemary
  • Parsley
  • Red pepper flakes
  • Red wine vinegar
  • Chicken broth
  • White cannellini beans
  • Salt
  • Black pepper

Difficulty Level:

2 out of 5. Incredibly easy if you are not afraid of frying bacon.

What I liked about the recipe:

I made this recipe to go with braised lamb. When I first heard about the combination, I was a bit skeptical. I have had dishes with beans in them but I’ve never had beans as a side dish.

What I would change next time?

I want to try this recipe with a milder main dish. The braised lamb was too rich to be paired with this recipe. This recipe packs a flavor punch on its own and should be the star of the meal, not competing with anything else.

For the recipe itself, I’d add more herbs, I couldn’t really taste them.

Final Thoughts:

It’s simple, if you love bacon, you’ll love this recipe. These beans pack a flavor punch that will have everyone asking for seconds.
