One tip:  The great northern bean is very delicate in flavor & can be easily over powered. Mix your dip & allow it to sit for an hour before you add any additional seasoning – especially the garlic. You can also use black beans as a substitute for the great northern.

Since this dip has no fat, you can splurge a little by eating with tortilla chips & still be okay on your fat intake for the day. Read the chip bag’s nutrition facts for fat content. Regular tortilla chips are usually 1 gram of fat per chip – but do have protein also…

Ingredients:

2 -15 oz. cans Great Northern Beans. Try Westbrae Organic – no “consequences” with this brand!

1 – 10 oz. can of diced tomatoes with chilies like Ro*tel

2 teaspoons poultry seasoning – or to taste

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or 1/4 fresh minced garlic  (be very careful – this dip can end up tasting like a bowl of garlic really quick)

Salt & black pepper to taste

Optional:

Squeeze a bit of fresh lemon or lime juice

Dash of celery seeds

Chopped bacon

Minced shrimp

Cilantro, parsley or fresh rosemary for garnish

Directions:

Drain your cans of beans & tomatoes with chilies  Put all your ingredients in your blender or food processor & pulse until you get the consistency you want. Let the dip stand for an hour before tasting to perfect your seasonings.
