Recipe of the Week - White Bean Dip

Teresa Long - February 28, 2008

This week’s recipe is a white bean and sun dried tomato dip. This makes a wonderful dip with pita bread or whole grain crackers. I also use this as a spread with a wrap or sandwich. You will love the flavor of the sun dried tomatoes and basil with this. Enjoy!

1 ½ cup cooked white beans (great northern or canelli)

1 small shallot, peeled

2 garlic cloves, peeled (optional)

¼ cup sun dried tomatoes in oil, chopped (about 8-9 tomatoes)

1 teaspoon sea salt

Pinch red chili flakes

3 large fresh basil leaves

1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Place all ingredients in a food processor or blender. Process or blend on high speed until mixture is a creamy, smooth consistency. Taste for salt and pepper.
