Steamed Beans & Spinach Combo

Beans and greens are a pairing that shows up across a lot of cuisines for good reason — the beans bring substance, the spinach brings brightness, and together they make a bowl that doesn't need much else.

Fiber-rich beans are a solid base for anyone building meals around an arthritis-friendly approach, and steaming the spinach separately keeps it from turning to mush, so it still has some texture when it's folded in. Ginger and garlic, sautéed briefly, give the beans a warm background flavor.

Stir everything together gently once the spinach is ready, adding a splash of broth if the mixture needs more moisture.
