^^^adding that you may want to save some of the aquafaba when draining and add it to the stew to give it more body

I'm trying to make this recipe but I do not have dried Great Northern Beans, just 2 cans of Great Northern beans.

How would you alter the recipe to account for the canned beans? I assume put the beans in a little later or cook them for less time? Reduce the liquid?
