30-Minute Spicy White Beans with Tomatoes & Parmesan

These spicy white beans are my go-to meal after a busy day. Simmered with tomatoes, rosemary, and Parmigiano Reggiano, they’re warm, filling, and full of flavor. Keep them vegetarian or add Italian sausage for something heartier. Budget-friendly, gluten-free, and ready in just 30 minutes.
