This is a creamy concoction of escarole and beans. It's rich, and it's divine! It's also best served with a warm crusty Italian bread.

This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste, but I think that's just because I used canned beans. I'll definitely make it again, but I'll use dried beans next time.
