Rosemary and Garlic Cannellini Bean Dip with Parmesan

A couple of weeks ago I went on a mass food blog binge and found LOTS of new yummy looking blogs, including the on that provided this very yummy dip - bakingequalslove.com/.


1 x 400g can of cannellini beans, drained and rinsed thoroughly
1-2 tsp rosemary finely chopped (thyme works really well as well.)
handful of flat leaf parsley
2 - 3 cloves garlic
1/3 cup really fruity extra virgin olive oil + extra for drizzling
zest and juice of 1 -2 lemons, to taste
a pinch of salt and 2-3 Tablespoons of grated parmesan cheese to taste or 1/2 tsp sea salt or 1/4 tsp normal salt to taste.
Loads of freshly cracked black pepper

Crackers or pita crisps to serve

1. Place rinsed beans, rosemary, parsley, garlic, olive oil, lemon juice and zest, salt and pepper into a food processor and blitz until just blended, leaving it a little bit chunky for texture. Taste and adjust seasoning as you like it. And voila, you have bean dip. Yip that's it...done burger!

2. Serve with crackers, pita crisps, on toast, in sandwiches or just eat with a spoon! Keep in the fridge and it's even more delicious the next day.
