Sauteed Spinach and Butter Beans image

Got this recipe from a magazine this summer. It was so easy to do and the flavor makes me want to stock up on butter beans. I caramelized the onions, rather than crisped them because I had too many onions in the pan and the moisture lent itself to the softer result. I used rice wine vinegar. and garnished with the pepper flakes. It was so good. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think next time I'll add some crushed red pepper flakes or paprika to give it a little more kick.
