16 ounces fat-free vegetarian baked beans in tomato

15 ounces canned butter beans -- or lima beans, rinsed

NOTES : " Vegetables sautéed just with no-stick vegetable oil spray

get a caramel-like flavor, imparting a depth that simply putting all

the vegetables in raw with the beans doesn't provide. The dish is

still good without precooking the vegetables, and I do it that way

when in a pinch for time (or energy). "
