White Bean Dip with Green Olive Salsa
Let’s face it, my Christmas menu wouldn’t be complete without a dip… This one is vibrant, fresh, simple and delicious. The dairy-free blend of white beans and feta creates a super-creamy texture. However, the star of the dish is definitely the green olive salsa with parsley, lemon and pistachios!!!!

Frequently asked questions
I love how convenient and quick canned legumes are. I have trouble planning meals ahead of time, so I like having this option on hand.
On the other hand, dried and soaked legumes have a firmer texture and don’t fall apart as easily.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.
Excellent alternatives include almonds, sunflower seeds and pine nuts.
