Sicilian White Bean Mascarpone Dip
If you haven't yet tried using white beans as a spread or a dip, then this is the recipe you need to try. Once pureed, the beans are so smooth and creamy. I mixed them with mascarpone cheese for an extra creaminess. Then I added some lemon juice and zest for freshness. Serve this dip with pita chips or on a sandwich! I know you're going to love it! Same some extra for a yummy Tuna Sandwich recipe coming this weekend!
