Bean Dip

Making your own bean dip is super easy. Black beans, white beans, lima beans and fava beans all make delicious dips—we love to add Greek yogurt, fresh herbs, kale and cotija cheese to make party-worthy appetizers. If you like hummus, try awhite bean dip, like this version with parsley oil. For a shortcut, use canned beans instead of dried, and puree them with garlic, herbs and olive oil. The parsley oil is simply fresh parsley, celery leaves and olive oil blended together, and then poured over the dip.Black bean dipsare a great addition to any Tex-Mex fiesta, and require just a couple of ingredients.

Grilled Antipasto with Garlicky Bean Dip

3581

When Marcia Kiesel grills vegetables, she likes to add unexpected accompaniments, like grilled marinated mini mozzarella balls (called bocconcini) wrapped in anchovy fillets, and garlicky white bean dip. Served with grilled country bread, this antipasto becomes a light main course. The bocconcini should be eaten hot off the grill, while still soft enough to spread on the bread. To prevent sticking, lightly oil the grate before grilling the bocconcini.Healthy Grilling Recipes
