Ingredients

1½ cups cooked cannellini beans, drained and rinsed

Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

In a food processor, pulse the cannellini beans, olive oil, lemon juice and zest, garlic, salt, and several grinds of pepper until combined. If the bean dip is too thick, slowly add the water with the food processor running. Process until smooth. Blend in the basil and/or rosemary, if desired.
