- 1 tsp oregano, dried (or 2 tsp fresh)

- ½ tsp salt
- Pinch black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 cup seasonal vegetables, chopped
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the beans, water, onion, garlic, and herbs.

Non-Cleansing Option: Add ½–1 tsp of oil per serving, such as ghee, butter, coconut oil or olive oil. If the entire dish will be eaten when not cleansing, sauté the onion and garlic in 2 tsp of ghee, butter or coconut oil. (Always add olive oil at the table, after heat, and do not cook with it.)
