Healthy Super Bowl Recipes: White Bean Dip
A white bean dip that is very light as well as refreshing. It has a very Mediterranean flavor as it is seasoned with fresh Meyer lemons, rosemary and green garlic.
The third appetizer we have for our Super Bowl Healthy Eats Series is this yummy white bean dip that is flavored with meyer lemons, garlic and rosemary. I like to serve it with an assortment of fresh vegetables as well as toasted baguette; but, to keep it healthy and in check with our Ten in 10 Healthy Challenge I am serving it with some organic baby carrots I picked up from Happy Boy Farms. Whatever you decide to serve it with, it will be a crowd pleaser at your Super Bowl party.
Recipe: White Bean Dip
2 15oz cans white beans
4 cloves of garlic
1/2 c olive oil
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, minced
3 lemons – zested
1/2 lemon – juiced
kosher salt – to taste
fresh cracked black pepper – to taste
Put beans and garlic in a food processor, process until smooth. Slowly add olive oil while food processor is running. Add the rosemary and lemon zest and lemon juice, pulse just until mixed. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place in a bowl. Garnish with a small amount of olive oil and more fresh rosemary. Serve. Eat.

Am a big fan of the white bean dip – though have never had it with rosemary before. Must try.
Sounds and looks yummy. I definitely want to try it out next time I have access to a food processor.
