  1       c            Dried white beans -- soaked
                       Overnight in refrigerator
  1       lg           Onion -- whole; chopped
  8                    To 12 whole garlic cloves
                       -salt/pepper
    1/2   c            Sun-dried tomatoes (not
                       Packed in oil)
    1/2   c            Nonfat plain yogurt
 10       c            Assorted greens(escarole,
                       Arugula, dandelion, or
                       Radicchio) -- well rinsed and
                       -coarsely chopped
  3       tb           Red wine vinegar
    1/2   ts           Hot red pepper flakces, or
                       More to taste
  8       sl           Whole grain bread

 Drain the beans, rinse, and cover with 4 to 6 cups fresh water. Add the
 onion and all but 1 of the cloves, bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer
 for about 1 hour, until the beans are very soft. Drain the beans, onions,
 and garlic, and reserves the remaining bean liquid. Place the bean mixture
 in the container of a food processor and puree, adding enough cooking
 liquid to make a soft puree.  Season with slt and pepper. Set aside.  Chop
 the sun-dried tomatoes and soak them for 15 to 30 minutes in just enough
 bean cooking liquid to soften and release their flavor. Fold the tomatoes
 into the beans.  Fold in the yogurt. In a large sauté pan over high heat,
 wilt the greens in the vinegar. Drain well and season with salt, pepper,
 hot pepper flakes, and additional vinegar, if desired. To assemble the
 crostini, grill or toast the whole grain bread. While warm, rub it with the
 remaining garlic clove, cut in half.  Spread the bread slices with white
 bean puree and top each with chopped greens.
