South of France White Bean Dip

  • 2 cans of any white beans (strained and rinsed)

  • ½ large onion roughly chopped (white or yellow)

  • 1 clove of garlic (cracked and peeled)

  • 2 TBS of South of France

  • 1 TBS of good Olive Oil

  • Juice of ½ a lemon

  • Water to eye

Over medium heat add most of the olive oil (saving some for finishing) to the pan and saute chopped onion and garlic with most of the South of France (saving some for finishing). When onions are translucent and cooked through add to a blender cup or food processor. Add beans and lemon juice as well and pulse. Then add water little by little while the blender is running to get the consistency right. You want it thick enough to scoop onto a chip or bread but not so thick it's hard to get out of the blender or all the beans aren’t getting blended. Add salt to taste, then using a rubber spatula spoon into the serving bowl. Finish with remaining olive oil and South of France. Serve with pita chips, baguette, or whatever will hold it, and enjoy!
