Maria MarloweThis lemony white bean dip is a great alternative to hummus if you’re looking to change things up. It’s super nutritious and made with Navy Beans; in fact, one cup serves a whopping 15 g of protein and 19 g of fiber. It’s great on crackers, veggies, or just on its own.
Here’s the recipe:
