White Bean Dip with Lemon and Dill.

White bean dip with lemon and dill is creamy, flavorful, and perfect for dipping chips or fresh veggies! Gluten free, vegan, and allergy friendly.

Who’s ready for the Super Bowl? Just kidding, I really have no interest either way. (Remember, we are musicians, so not very sporty by nature!) Although I do love the Olympics, and am really excited that they are coming right up!
Anyway, I just happen to have a white bean dip recipe to post today,  so I thought I’d try to be relevant. Ha. Because sporting events on TV= dip? Maybe?

I love beans and lentils, and we try to incorporate them into our menu each week, usually in a simple bean soup or chili. Last week though, I wanted to make a dip, because we had a ton of these crackers in our pantry. They are so good, and really sturdy, so they can stand up to a nice white bean dip.

I just combined some white beans, roasted garlic, lemon, and dill, and we gobbled this dip right up. Of course, you could put roasted garlic on cardboard and we would probably scarf that down, too. We love roasted garlic. Plus it makes the house smell like an Italian restaurant, so that’s awesome as well.

This dip could be made with any white bean, and if you are not a dill fan, you could use a different spice – rosemary would be delicious, too! Serve it with crackers or tortilla chips, or pita bread if you can eat wheat. It would also work well with veggies for dipping.
