"The recipe is missing a lot of info. The first ingredient is 1/4 plus 1/2 cup olive oil, but it never states where the 1/2 cup comes in. The line "3 cups beans, soaked and fully cooked" says to me that one should cook 3 cups of dried beans, but that makes an awful lot of beans-- if the intention was to state that one needs 3 cups of cooked beans, then that is what should be stated. The amount of liquid called for is barely enough to keep the rest of the ingredients damp. And toward the end of the directions it says to "adjust seasonings"-- what seasonings? Nowhere in the recipe does it even say to add salt, much less anything else. And this makes way more than 4 servings. I ended up adding a full quart of chicken broth to this (in addition to the 4 cups bean liquid) and salt, pepper, & some basil and oregano, and that made it turn out pretty well. As written it would have been nothing more than a gigantic pot of unseasoned, slightly damp greens & beans, hence my rating.
