Lindsey’s Lemony Bean Dip

My niece Lindsey taught me how to make this dip. She saw all the ingredients for it around my kitchen: cannellini beans, garlic, olive oil, and a basket of Meyer lemons. We were all starving after a day of boat rides and beach trips. Before long she was peeling garlic and opening a can of beans.
In no time we had this delicious bean dip. It’s like hummus, but so much lighter and creamier. We scooped it up with crackers and veggies. It definitely hit the spot.Her sister and Toby came along, and between the four of us we finished the whole bowl!Now it’s a go-to quick snack at our house. I make it more often than hummus. Sometimes I double it so I have enough to spread on sandwiches and wraps, too. Thanks, Lindsey!
