Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 15-ounce cans cannellini beans (or other white beans; drained and rinsed)

28 ounces marinara sauce

½ teaspoon dried oregano (or pizza seasoning)

8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Arrange a rack in the top third of the oven and heat the broiler on high.

Add the olive oil to a medium heat-safe skillet over medium heat. When warm, add the beans, marinara sauce, and oregano. Bring to a simmer.
