Equipment

  • Colander
  • Medium Bowl
  • Blender

Ingredients

  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 1 can Cannellini Beans 15½ ounces
  • ⅓ bunch Parsley Fresh
  • ¼ cup Water
  • 1 Tablespoon Canola Oil
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 pinch Cayenne Pepper

Instructions

  • Peel and mince garlic cloves.
  • Drain and rinse cannellini beans.
  • Rinse and chop parsley.
  • In a blender, add garlic, cannellini beans, water, canola oil, salt, ground black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Blend until smooth.
  • Transfer dip to medium bowl. Top with parsley and stir.

Notes

  • Use ½ teaspoon garlic powder in place of minced fresh garlic cloves.
  • Use 2 teaspoons dried parsley in place of chopped fresh parsley.
  • Serve with whole wheat pita bread, tortilla chips, or cut-up fresh veggies.
  • Use Great Northern or navy beans instead of cannellini beans.
