Another spectacular thing about this recipe is that it comes together quickly and can be prepared up to 3 days in advance. We love easy, prep-ahead recipes!

A food processor is what we suggest for making this recipe. However, a high-powered blender could do the trick, too. You may just need to scrap the sides of the blender a few extra times.

If prepared in advance, it will just need a quick reheating before serving to bring the flavors back to life. While not as “pretty” to serve it this way, a small slow cooker works great if you plan to keep this dip out for a longer period of time. Simply set it on low (or warm), get it nice and warm and let the snacking begin!

That being said, this dip is also tasty when served cold as it has a similar texture to hummus. Try it in place of mayo or mustard or as a tasty addition to your next turkey sandwich. Or just stand in front of the fridge and scoop it up with whatever veggies you have kickin’ around. No judging here.

Serve it up with a large platter of fresh vegetables and your favorite crackers for nibbling.

We love our vegetables! Not only do they add to the aesthetics of this appetizer, but what better way to get this dip into your mouth than on a carrot stick, radish slice, bell pepper strip, etc.? We know it can be hard to sneak veggies into your diet every day, especially during the holiday season when everything is so hectic and you’re surrounded by cookies, cakes, and other less virtuous snack options. So serving an assortment of veggies with this Warm Tuscan White Bean Dip is a great way to add some color to your plate and nutrients in your body. Sure, you can absolutely go ahead and add your favorite crackers, too. We love Simple Mills and Mary’s Gone Crackers (pictured).

Flavorful, fiber-rich, gluten-free and vegan-friendly!

Thanks to the beans, this dip is high in fiber and protein. Both the fiber and protein increase feelings of satiety meaning you’ll be less likely to go face down in the dessert tray at the end of the night! We call that a win. In addition, this recipe is also gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, and nut-free making for a tasty option for your guests who are in need of something allergy-friendly or following a vegan lifestyle.

    This was so good! I wasn’t sure whether to use the sun-dried tomatoes that are packed in olive oil or the dried ones in a plastic pouch so I went with the ones in oil. My dip came out much lighter in color than yours and I’m thinking that might be due to my choice of tomatoes. Thankfully it did not matter in terms of taste. 5-stars, my family loved it!

      I really love this as a alternative to hummus, too. It’s also delicious as a spread for sandwiches in place of mayo or cheese.
