- This versatile dip can also be used as a spread for sandwiches, burgers, and wraps, or even as an alternative spread to avocado toast.
- Cannellini or Great Northern beans are both options for the white beans in this recipe. If desired, you can use all white beans instead of a mixture of white and cannellini beans.
