About Butter bean dip
Butter bean dip is a creamy and nutritious spread made primarily from blended butter beans, also known as lima beans, which are native to South and Central America. This dip often incorporates olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, and a hint of tahini or spices, creating a flavor profile similar to Mediterranean hummus. It pairs beautifully with raw vegetables, crackers, or pita bread, making it a versatile option for snacks or appetizers. Butter beans are rich in fiber, plant-based protein, and essential nutrients such as potassium and folate, promoting heart health, steady energy, and digestive wellness. Olive oil offers healthy fats, while lemon juice adds a boost of vitamin C. Though generally healthy, the dip can be calorie-dense if made with excessive oil or tahini, so portion control is key. This delicious yet simple dish fits seamlessly into vegetarian or heart-smart eating patterns.
