This Whipped White Bean Dip is Topped with Colorful Garden Veggies

If you're looking to whip up a summer appetizer, this whipped white bean dip is a tasty choice. From food blogger Jess of How Sweet It Is, the Summer Garden White Bean Dip contains seasonal ingredients including grilled vegetables.

Described as "grown up summer," the spread is piled high with colorful toppings and is "super smooth and herby." A delicious alternative to hummus or a chick pea-based dip, the snack is covered in grilled corn, cherry tomatoes and a plethora of herbs from basil to mint. Also, it has grilled scallions. To make your own at home, you will need ingredients like cannellini beans and fresh rosemary, thyme, chives and basil leaves for garnishing. You can serve it with raw vegetables, pita chips, crackers or baguettes.
