Avocado, Cannellini & Preserved Lemon Dip

This delicious dip is unlike anything you have tasted. The smooth cannellini beans and creamy avocado are perked up by the briny preserved lemon. We add cilantro and mint for freshness, and cumin and coriander for some subtle spice. Serve this with toasted pita chips for a great party snack or use it as a stuffing for tomatoes for a light dinner. You could also include it in a mezze platter or in a veggie sandwich. The possibilities are endless! You can make your own preserved lemon but we love the pickled lemon from Alili, a purveyor of Moroccan specialty products.

Wow, that dip looks so amazing! I want to try it as a veggie sandwich. I just ordered the pickled lemon from Alili so I'll try & make it as soon as it arrives. You guys have such surprising & wonderful ideas for foods! Oh & Alili looks great! Thanks so much for mentioning it! I ordered their lavender & also Jujube honey too~their look so good!

Hi Jon, I am glad you ordered the pickled lemons- you will use them in so many recipes! I like the Alili brand, because it comes with a lot of brine that you can splash into the recipes (and the martini!!). The lavender honey is my favorite! Let us know what you end up doing with the sandwich!

Hi Sophia! Wow, your Avacado, Cannelli, & preserved lemon dip was wonderful! I put in in a simple pita sandwich~tomatoes,cucumbers & carrots. It made it really special! You guys have such magical recipes! Oh & your deviled eggs recipe looks amazing! I'm going to try & make those for friends this weekend. This is such a great show!
