Rosemary and Lemon White Bean Dip
I rely almost exclusively on hummus as the dip of choice at parties so I decided to branch out and gave this rosemary and lemon white bean dip by Mark Bittman a whirl.

The recipe couldn't be simpler: process together beans, garlic, lemon juice, and oil in a food processor, and once that's smooth, transfer to a bowl and stir in rosemary and lemon zest. The results of mere minutes of work ended up surprising me.

Sitting next to my favorite hummus, this white bean dip disappeared twice as fast as its chickpea cousin. The lightly flavored cannellini beans provided a creamy base for the lemon and rosemary to shine, giving an herbal, zesty, and fresh flavor that my guests gobbled up.
Ingredients
  • 1 (15 ½ ounce) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 medium cloves garlic, peeled
  • 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice and 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest from 1 lemon
  • ¼ cup plus 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, divided
  • 2 teaspoons finely minced fresh rosemary
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
