Roasted Garlic Bean Dip
appetizers, dips, vegetarian
1 each garlic bulb
5 tablespoon olive oil
14 oz cannellini beans, cooked
1 pinch rosemary, finely chopped
2 tablespoon parsley, chopped
1 salt & pepper
Preheat oven to 375F. Carefully break open the garlic bulb & divide into cloves, do not remove skins. Place on a small roasting tray & drizzle with 1 tb olive oil. Roast for 20 to 30 minutes until softened. Carefully squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins & place in a food processor.
Add beans to the processor & process gradually adding the remainder of the olive oil. Add enough oil to get a thick paste similar to hummus. Beat in the rosemary & parsley & season.
Serve with pita bread.
