Caponata Butter Beans

A twist on a classic Italian dish, we've bulked out this delicious caponata by using butter beans which are a fantastic source of potassium, magnesium... and of course fibre. Potassium is great for promoting heart health whilst magnesium supports muscle and nerve function and fibre supports your immune system. This simple, nutritious dish really ticks all the boxes.

I loved this meal but to be honest there’s not much I don’t like about the doctors kitchen it was very tasty and filling, although I have to admit that I did change the recipe a little as had run out of some ingredients I added red peppers and mushrooms instead of aubergines and courgette and it still worked as far as I could tell anyway, I would also go steady on the chilli flakes as well as I only added half a teaspoon full and was sill very hot for me.
Thank you the doctors kitchen team

Very nice recipe! A bit of work to prep but the rest is easy! It was a very nice Italian flavour! I served it with a green salad and a piece of whole wheat baguette. My husband loved it too, he didn’t miss the meat😉

Fabulous. Loved this, very flavoursome, very straightforward and a perfect dinner for a chilly weeknight. Also impressive enough to offer dinner guests.
