Recipe: White Bean Dip (with garlic and sage, blender)

WHITE BEAN DIP

1 green onion, cut in 1⁄2-inch pieces
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans, drained
1 tablespoon sage leaves, packed and roughly chopped
1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

With blender running on low, drop garlic clove and green onion pieces through blender jar cover to chop.

Scrape blender jar and add lemon juice, cannellini beans, and sage. Blend on medium for about 20 to 30 seconds until blended.
