Easy and healthy dip

Everyone needs a dip for the Super Bowl. Go Cardinals!!!!

Put the following in a food processor (or in a deep bowl and use a stick blender instead):

Two cans white beans. Canneilli if you're uppity, great northern if you're slumming. I don't know that it matters. Rinsing the beans and draining them in a colander will cut down on the salt content.

A couple T water if you drain the beans.

Some garlic. Cloves, powder, you decide.

Sage and rosemary.

Salt, I like sea salt myself.

A dash o' cayenne. More, and my hub won't eat it. Your mileage may vary.

Puree, while adding a thin drizzle of olive oil.

Vegan, healthy fat, protein, and something my skeptical husband enjoys as well with raw veggies, or in his case Triscuits if he's lucky. ;-)
