    I am all about a good dip. Give me hummus, salsa or guacamole any time of day and I am a happy girl.

    Ya, I'm looking at you Avocado Hummus Toast.

    And I am happy to report there is another type of dip we can add to the delicious list - White Bean Dip with Herbs. This dip is full of fresh garlic, thyme and rosemary and has the creamiest texture. It tastes rich without adding a ridiculous amount of oil.

    The key to the deep flavor in this dip is sautéing the garlic and herbs before mixing them in with the rest of the ingredients. This releases the fragrant flavors and infuses them with the oil. And who doesn't want their house to smell like garlic and herbs???

    Serve this dip hot over toasted baguette slices or cold with fresh veggies and pita bread. You can't go wrong either way.

      Very easy to make and sooo delicious to dip a nice fresh bread in. A lot like hummus but with white beans.

      I made the bean dip recipe to spread on toast and top with roasted vegetables or mushrooms, for quick lunch/dinners. I’m trying not to use canned foods, so made up some Rancho Gordo white beans called Mogette de Vendee’. It was what I had on hand, so I used rosemary and sage (smelled SO good) and fresh lemon juice - instead of vinegar. I really liked it, and look forward to trying it with thyme and red wine vinegar.

      Took this to a BBQ with some air fried pita chips ,celery and carrot sticks. Made it as per the recipe and it was a huge hit. Our meat eating 25 year old sone declared it was almost as good as his steak !! Now THAT’s a win in my book !!

      Thanks for sharing this recipe! I made a few substitutions —dried herbs for fresh, and dried beans for canned—and used less oil, but this was still super tasty on pita triangles. My 6-year-old was not impressed, but my 9-year-old proclaimed I was a good cook and asked for more. 🙂 Me? I could probably eat this by the spoonful.
