Green Olive & Butter Bean Dip – Healthy Snacking

olive-bean-dip

Dips are just one of the things that the Thermomix does so easily! I whipped this one up for our lunch today and it was too good not to share with you.

The four of us ate the entire batch! My six year old has declared it the best thing she’s ever eaten!

We dipped vege sticks and crackers into it. I also had some roasted red capsicum that needed using, so I diced it into small pieces. It complimented the dip really well.

After some more healthy snack ideas?

Snacks such as dips like this one are a breeze in the Thermomix. Having healthy snacks on hand stops me reaching for ready made snacks.

I have a whole book dedicated to snacks and light meals, in Lunches and Snacks Made Easy. It’s incredibly popular amongst Bexta’s. My kids have firm lunch box favourites in it that we keep in constant rotation in the freezer.

In case you don’t have Lunches and Snacks Made Easy, here are a few of our favourite snack recipes from right here on the website:

I’m a bit late to the party but this is an awesome plant based alternative to the yumis green olive dip (which is an absolute fave of mine and I have been known to devour it with a spoon). I can see this dip being great on sandwiches or in a falafel pita or with corn chips as I have eaten it today. Would even be great thinned out a little as a sauce for hot chips or jacket spuds. This is a new fave and a regular for sure! Thankyou!

I also used cannelini beans!
