Cumin Scented White Beans Recipe

A simple to make Cumin Scented White Beans recipe. Yikes...I almost forgot...I'll keep this one short and sweet! First off, let me say...these taste a lot better than they look (what can I say, I'm still working on the picture thing;)). This is the recipe I promised for the beans that I served with my Simply Seared Tuna w/ Triple Herb Sauce. They literally take all of 10 minutes to throw together! Whenever I use beans from a can (which is most of the time), I always rinse them under cold water water after I drain them. This actually washes off about 60% of the extra sodium that canned goods tend to have. Then if you feel you're beans need a little extra salt, you can add it in yourself.
