Lima Bean And Basil Dip

Ingredients

• 10 ounces frozen or cooked lima beans
• 8 large basil leaves
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 garlic clove, crushed
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lime juice

Directions

1. If using frozen lima beans, put them in a microwave-safe dish and microwave for 5 minutes.
2. Let cool to room temperature.
3. Transfer the lima beans to a blender, add the remaining ingredients, and blend to a chunky consistency.
4. Scrape down the sides of the blender a few times to make sure the dip is uniformly blended.
5. If the mixture is too thick to blend, add a few drops of olive oil.
6. Taste and adjust the lime juice and/or salt, if needed.
7. Transfer to a serving bowl.
