One day for lunch, I pulled out carrots, celery and some tortilla chips I had made and was shocked to find that I was out of hummus. . So I rummaged through the cabinets and found a can of cannellini beans. Then I poked around the web until I found this recipe, and doctored it up a bit. It’s quick, easy, packed with protein and gave me something to dip my veggies in!

Simple Vegan White Bean Dip

Ingredients

    - 1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
    - 3 cloves garlic
    - 1 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    - 1/3 cup olive oil
    - 1/4 cup (loosely packed) fresh Italian parsley leaves
    - A few leaves of basil chopped
    - Kosher Salt
    - Freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

Pour the beans, garlic, basil and parsley in a food processor and pulse until fully chopped. Then add the olive oil followed by the rest of the ingredients.

Done.

It’s really that simple. I could totally see serving this dip at a party with chips!

  • mmmmm, sounds delish!

    I love making guacamole (avocados, tomatoes, lime juice, cumin, salt, pepper, cayenne pepper).

    I also love making hummus (I dont have one ‘go to’ recipe for that), and vegetable dip with spinach in it. I could probably live off dip, and I will be trying this white bean dip very soon!

    I’ve been making hummus at home since a jar of tahini can last for so long and there are so many different bean options for hummus. I love the idea of including a green like parsley in the dip itself – great idea. I’m going to try with my hummus recipes.

    That sounds great. I will try to cook it. And hope it’s not so bad. :)
