Another dip to add to that veggie tray recipe above - the two dips would look so festive and great together.

-1 can white cannelini beans, drained
-1 clove garlic
-1/2 tsp sesame oil
-juice of 1 lemon
-salt and pepper to taste
-chicken broth to thin

Place beans, garlic, sesame oil, and lemon juice in a food processor. Puree until smooth. Add chicken broth slowly and mix until the dip reaches a good dipping consistency. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve.

Makes 12 servings.
