Easy, Creamy White Bean Dip

I love a good bean dip. It’s super easy to make and a great high-protein snack or appetizer you can have at a party or potluck. This white bean dip is cheesy, garlicy, and delicious. I really think you’re going to love this one! 

Why you’ll love this white bean dip: 

• Easy: Have this ready in under an hour for your group 
• Filling: The white beans make this white bean dip filling and satisfying
• Delicious: Do I have to mention cheese and garlic again?

Ingredient Notes: 

White Beans: White beans (also known as navy beans) are loaded with benefits. They have antioxidants, fiber, protein, and that’s only to list a few.

Cheese: For this recipe I used cheddar and queso cheese, however, you can swap these out for your favorite cheeses or even vegan cheeses if you have dietary restrictions. 

How to make white bean dip: 

1. Preheat the oven to 400F, line a baking tray with parchment paper and prepare an 8- or 9-inch casserole dish. Set aside. 
2. In a food processor, add all of the ingredients. Blend until smooth.
3. Adjust flavor to taste, and add more water if it’s too thick.
4. Transfer to the small casserole dish.
5. Bake for 20 minutes and set the baking tray on the rack underneath. 
6. Remove from the oven and add all of the extra grated cheese on top.
7. Bake for another 10 minutes, until golden brown on top. 
8. Set the oven to broil for a couple of minutes if needed. 
9. Serve immediately with chopped chives and tortilla chips.
