Use this flavorful high-fiber spread as an accompaniment to toasted baguette slices or as a dip for pita chips, carrot sticks, or cucumber slices. It also makes a terrific spread for pita sandwiches. If you don't have a food processor, simply mash the bean mixture with a fork; the spread will have a slightly chunkier consistency. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
4 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped |
1 (15-ounce) can great northern beans, rinsed and drained |
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice |
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
rosemary sprig (optional) |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add garlic; sauté 1 minute. Place garlic mixture, beans, and next 3 ingredients in a food processor; process until smooth. Serve immediately, or cover and chill until ready to serve. Garnish with rosemary sprig, if desired. |
