3-ingredient Pizza Beans
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

  2. In a casserole dish, combine the drained beans, marinara sauce, and shredded cheese.

  3. Bake in the oven until the sauce is bubbling and the cheese is melted, about 20 minutes.

Notes

Yes to Toppings

I encourage you to put your spin on the pizza beans. Our favorite upgrade is pepperoni slices on top. I like the kind that makes a little pepperoni cup when you cook them. Since pizza is the name of the game here, your favorite pizza toppings are all invited—crumbled cooked sausage, red onions, banana peppers, and even anchovies, if that’s your thing.

What to Serve With Pizza Beans

If I were cozying up on the couch eating my pizza beans by the glow of an episode of Next in Fashion, I would require nothing more than a glass of wine to complete the meal. For a family affair, I’ll go a couple of steps further with some focaccia or garlic bread and a quick, simple green salad. Sauéed broccoli rabe or spinach would also be a welcome addition.
