White Bean Dip Recipe with Homemade Pita Chips

Yield: 6 servings

Total Prep Time: 15 minutes

Although you can use the same extra virgin olive oil for the entire recipe, adding a drizzle of a higher quality variety right before serving will add an extra “pop” of flavor.

Ingredients for White Bean Dip Recipe:

Seasoned Pita Chips:

• 6 pitas
• 3 T. olive oil
• salt and pepper, to taste

White Bean Dip:

• 1 – 15 oz. can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed 3 cloves fresh garlic, peeled
• 2 T. fresh lemon juice

Pita Chip Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

Cut each pita into 8 equal-sized wedges. Lightly brush pita wedges with olive oil on both sides and place on lined baking sheet.

Season pita with salt and pepper before placing in oven. Bake for 5-6 minutes before turning each wedge to toast the opposite side.

Return to oven and continue baking for another 5 or 6 minutes, or until pita wedges are golden brown. Remove from oven and set aside.

White Bean Dip Recipe Directions:

Add cannellini beans, fresh garlic, lemon juice, sage leaves, and olive oil to the bowl of a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.

Pour bean mixture into a serving bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Right before serving, add a dash of cayenne pepper and a drizzle of some high-quality extra virgin olive oil.

Serve with your homemade seasoned pita chips. Or for extra options, serve with vegetable crudités.

Tip: A little bit of fresh sage goes a long way. If you aren’t sure how much to use, start with a small amount. Then taste and add more, if desired.
