Ingredients You'll Need
The printable recipe card with exact amounts and directions to make this white bean dip recipe is below.
White Beans: Use your favorite canned white beans to make this dip. You can cook dried beans from scratch if you prefer.
Spices: I like to use ground cumin, paprika, dried oregano, salt, black pepper and hot pepper flakes.
Oil: Olive oil helps this dip to have a smooth texture.
Vegetables: Scallions, garlic and red bell pepper are essential to add extra flavor.
Lime: always use fresh lime juice for a fresh flavor.
Cilantro: I love adding fresh cilantro to my bean dips, but feel free to replace it with parsley if you prefer.
How to Make White Bean Dip
- Place all the ingredients in the food processor and mix until well combined and smooth.
- Transfer the dip to a serving dish and top with the beans you set aside and fresh cilantro.
How to Serve this Dip
It's perfect with tortilla chips, crackers, raw vegetables like carrots, celery or pita bread. I also like to use as a filling for sandwiches, wraps or adding it to rice bowls.

Your English is perfect and I'm sure glad that you are blogging. I love your recipes: ) I have seen so many recipes with beans lately and that makes me so happy. I think beans are not used enough in cooking. I have been craving them lately and can't get enough. This bean dip looks yummy!!

Not to complain (I speak primarily English with a smattering of words in a few other languages) but I do find it interesting that English seems to be the default language of food blogs, at least. I'm grateful that foodies such as yourself and those from all over the globe write posts in my primary language. But I am also in awe at the multilingualism that you display. Speaking at least 2 languages seems to be the norm in most other countries (the native tongue and often English). I wish that we had the same approach here in US! By all means, please feel free to write posts in Spanish - I would welcome the opportunity and challenge of learning another language!
In the meantime, I will enjoy your white bean dip as I continue to mull over the issue of language and bloggign! 8-D

I enjoy your blog and recipes very much. Your English is very good. I married into a bilingual family ... they've lived in the U.S. proper; Puerto Rico; Carracas, Venezuela; and Mexico City. I'm trying to learn as much Spanish as I can, but it's a very slow, very challenging process. I truly appreciate your skillfulness at writing your blog in your second language.

I am so glad you heeded their encouragement, I for one would not have known that English is not your first language, you write like a native. Thank you for educating me and offering me many tempting reasons to explore Columbia.

Your white bean dip looks fantastic! Perhaps you can write some posts in Spanish and for those of us who don't know too much Spanish, there's always Google Translate which actually works pretty well 🙂
