Made this for dinner tonight, and it was so delicious! I didn't have champagne vinegar, so I used white wine vinegar. No other substitutions, the recipe is perfect. I served it with garlic knots for an authentic "pizzeria" feel. Will definitely make it again!

I made this using dried lima beans and the beans turned out very bitter. I did some googling and learned that there are various possible causes for bitter lima beans (overcooking, adding garlic when cooking, not soaking the night before etc). Regardless, i think next time I will use canned cannelinni beans instead to avoid the chance of the bitter flavor - the rest of the flavors were all good.

Would one can of garbanzo beans be a good substitute for one of the cans of beans?

I would get 2 cans to make sure you have enough! I think a can is usually around 1 1/2 cups
