INSTRUCTIONS
As a single person I am always looking for simple recipes that "are ready
when I am". When I saw this recipe in Mary Carroll's Healthful Cooking
column featured in the Minneapolis Star Tribune, I had to try it. It is
great, as a bread or cracker spread, a dipper, even toss a couple of
Tablespoons with some pasta. See if you don't like it.
Heat sherry or juice in non stick skillet over med-high heat. Add onions,
celery, carrots, garlic and saute, stirring frequently to prevent browning,
5 minutes and remove from heat.
In blender or food processor, puree vegetable saute, beans, parsley, basil,
and rest of spices. Stir in enough bread crumbs to make thick spread.
Refrigerate overnight and adjust seasonings before serving. Makes 6 to 8
servings.
