Description
This recipe includes diced canned tomatoes which is rich in lycopene and is one of the most potent antioxidants. Olive oil is also very good for heart health, and the beans supply a lot of fiber and a source of complex carbohydrate which help promote good blood sugar levels. It also tastes great and takes only a few minutes to make!
