Provencal bean stew

Made this recipe from one of my cook books, and it was really delicious, so i wanted to share =D

I edited the recipe a little bit (not so much xD), heres what i did. I think it should be for about 2 persons (but i ate everything myself @_@)

Ingredients:
1 onion, i sliced mine in two, then in slices
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 red bell pepper, in slices, here i also cut in two then in slices
0.5 chili, chopped
200 g canned tomatoes (half a can)
1 tablespoon tomato puree
1 400 g can white beans (i used tomato beans, but other beans probably works also), here i also added the liquid that was in the can =p
Water to desired consistency (mine got maybe bit too much soupy, but i like it like that xD)
1 veggie bullion
1 tablespoon basil spice
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 bay leaf
Salt and pepper to taste
About 0.5 dl black olives, pitted and chopped in half (i didnt measure what i used, probably it was more, and i also added the olive liquid into the stew for extra taste)

Directions:
Saute onion until soft, then add paprika, garlic and chili and saute for about 10 minutes more while stirring every now and then. I sauted in water, so if low on water add more =p Then add canned tomatoes, tomato puree, beans with their liquid, water, bullion and spices to taste. Put the lid on the pan and simmer for about 30 minutes. Then add olives (and olive liquid if you like that) and simmer for 15 minutes more. Then enjoy ^.^

Sorry for the bad photo btw :x
