3 white bean dips

Dips are perfect for entertaining because you can have them & some crudites on a board or platter just before guests arrive & they can help themselves, leaving you to finish off any last minute bits in the kitchen. 3 white bean dips is essentially one recipe made into three dips. So simple & easy. Perfect for sharing.

Cilantro & lime dip, as the name indicates, has fresh cilantro & lime juice blitzed until creamy, smoothness.

3 white bean dips

For the roasted pepper & sambal dip, I used jarred red peppers & sambal oelek. Feel free to roast your own pepper. No shame in using a jar or deli-bought roasted peppers.

3 white bean dips

In the smoky artichoke dip, I use marinated or canned artichokes with smoked paprika.

3 white bean dips

Although the 3 white bean dips are dips – they’re also really good to add to a sandwich or a wrap with your favorite meats &/or veg.

3 white bean dips

Use whatever fresh veg is in season for the crudites. I generally go for the fairly bog-standard carrots, radish, sugar snap peas & cucumbers. Green onions are a nice addition, maybe even some bread sticks. Make the board look appealing & pretty. The point is to make this easy for you, the host &to have food that your guests can mill around & share. Toodles, Lovoni

Gyros are traditionally cooked on a vertical spit Gyros are traditionally cooked on a vertical spit with pork or chicken. Not having a vertical spit, I opted for a less traditional method of cooking the chicken – horizontally on a barbie. The results of a spice rub marinade, a light bathing in olive oil and a quick, hot blast on the grill produced lots of flavor reminiscent of Spiced Chicken Gyros’ vertical cousin.
