this was really good. i like the herbs. i didnt have kidney beans so i used butter beans instead.. it was a pale green color.. i think it scared some off. but it is a very tasty dip.. a little runny but then i didnt put the breadcrumbs in. i added some chopped scallions for texture, and a jalepeno for some heat.. that i really liked, thanks

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I’m a single gal in my mid-20’s, raising 2 cats and a horse. A lacto-(sometimes ovo)-vegetarian since 1996 (childhood rebellion run wild), I work or volunteer for various local boutique wineries & vineyards in Northern California.
I use locally grown, organic produce whenever possible. I don't own a microwave or a food processor - probably because my kitchen is too small to fit them in! It also lacks a dishwasher, so any meal that is easy to clean up is a plus.
At age 18, I underwent a 16 level spinal fusion with titanium rods to correct idiopathic scoliosis, which left uncorrected, would have put me in a wheelchair. Since then I have been in 3 car accidents, one of which shattered my left hand (rebuilt) and triggered fibromyalgia.
When not working or cooking, I ride and train horses, paint badly (acrylic), play the guitar and piano, garden (organic), collect books and try to improve my calligraphy.
