Bright Basil Bean Dip
The creation of a boring day in the kitchen!
The goods:
A delicious part-skim grass-fed ricotta (I promise it’s worth the extra cost!)
Tahini, almond butter, any kind of nut butter or this Luscious spread that’s a hybrid tahini + almond
Ingredients to whirl together:
- 1 can navy beans, drained
- 1/3 cup ricotta cheese
- Zest of half a lemon
- Juice of half a lemon
- Handful of basil
- 1 tablespoon of nut butter or tahini
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- Grinds of black pepper
To make it CRUNCH – about a quarter cup of almonds and a few tbsp salted sunflower seeds. I pulsed for about 30 seconds and it left little bits of crunch!
Spread onto toast with honey, dip in the veggies or eat with a spoon!

This was delicious. My friends thought so too when I took it to their BBQ last weekend. I am making it again tomorrow for a family birthday dinner!
Yum! Hot day, didn’t want to cook, this was a perfect party dip/spread.
