food: easy cannellini bean dip

I was invited to the neighbors last evening for an impromptu get together. A get together that included wine, good conversation and tasty nibbles. My contribution was an easy and delish Cannellini Bean Dip accompanied perfectly by Stacy's, Italian Harvest, Pita Chips.

Cannellini Bean Dip

14 oz. can Cannellini beans

Clove of garlic, smashed

Juice of half a lemon

1/4 C of extra virgin olive oil

1 T fresh basil, mince

Drain and rinse the beans. Combine beans, garlic and lemon juice in food processor, blend. Gradually add olive oil until well blended. Season with S & P and top with fresh basil.

Enjoy!
