White Bean Dip
Written By Catherine Newman

Inexpensive, nearly instantaneous, and deliciously wholesome. As my 8-year-old son put it affectionately, "It's really our main dip."

2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, drained and well rinsed
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, more or less
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Pinch thyme
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 large garlic clove, pressed

Blend all ingredients in a food processor until very smooth, adding a tablespoon or two of hot water if the beans seems disinclined to become creamy.
