If you ask me, one of the best ways to eat beans is in a creamy sauce and that’s the vision behind these creamy and delicious pesto beans. The secret to that decadent sauce is actually silken tofu which also adds extra protein to the tally for a more satisfying bean dish that comes together in just 20 minutes. Full recipe below or comment RECIPE for a printable version. Creamy Pesto Beans Serves 4 * 1 (10.5 oz) package silken tofu * 1/2 cup vegetable broth * 1/4 cup nutritional yeast * 1/2 lemon, juiced * 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning * 1 teaspoon garlic powder * 1 (19 oz) jar white beans, drained and rinsed (about 2 cups) * 1/4 cup vegan pesto * Add the tofu, broth, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder to a blender and puree until smooth. 
 Add the beans and sauce to a skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat for 2-3 minutes. Stir in the vegan pesto and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Turn off the heat and garnish with fresh basil to serve! #beantok
