Plant-Based Recipe: White Bean and Green Dip

BY: COMPLEMENT

There's something to be said for having simple, healthy foods at the ready.

It eliminates the guess work, and reduces temptation for your old standbys.

And that goes for snacking just as much as a big meal.

This easy, protein-packed green dip is a perfect last-minute treat. Dip crackers or veggies, or spread the creamy sauce onto a sandwich for a boost of flavor and nutrients.

Here's the recipe:

• 1/2 cup or more of water or unflavored/unsweetened plant milk

DIRECTIONS
