Here’s an easy bean dip recipe, perfect for those 3 year olds who always ask for more food yet never fill up..
Bean Dip
- 1 420g can of white beans – can be cannelini, butter beans
- 1 garlic clove
- 3 tsbp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)
- 1 tbsp Tahini
- 2 shallots, end trimmed
- Pepper and sea salt to taste
Method:
- Rinse the beans under water to get rid of the brine.
- Place all ingredients into food processor and whizz it all up until smooth consistency.
- Add more EVOO if it gets “stuck”.
This is awesome served with raw veg sticks or even with crackers in place of hummus. Keeps in the fridge for up to 3 days in a sealed container.
Cooking is My Therapy.. 
I like this – makes a brilliant alternative to hummus which I get tired of, though the kidlets don’t.
Nice blog 🙂
Thanks for this – I made a batch up this for afternoon tea for my 3 and 2 year old. They were a bit hesitant at first, like with any new thing, but ended up having some tastes.. I loved it and am sure with time they will too! Could be very easily adapted for different flavours, too.
