I made a delicious artichoke pesto dip that I posted awhile back that was so yummy, but this recipe is an elevated version of it. I’ve added cannellini beans and avocado for additional protein, fiber, and healthy fats.

Perfectly blended into a smooth dip, this recipe is versatile...

For a thicker dip, reduce the amount of olive oil slightly.
Serve with GF tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or use as a spread for sandwiches.
If you don’t have arugula, you can skip it or substitute with spinach for a similar peppery flavor.
Can I use a different type of bean?
Yes, you can substitute cannellini beans with chickpeas or white navy beans for a similar texture.
How long does this dip last?
Store the dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Can I make this dip ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the dip a day in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Stir well before serving.
Is this dip freezer-friendly?
This dip is best enjoyed fresh, but you can freeze it for up to 1 month. Thaw in the refrigerator and blend again for a smoother texture.
Can I make this dip without a blender or food processor?
While a blender or food processor is ideal, you can mash the ingredients together with a fork or potato masher for a chunkier texture.
