White Bean Spread
"If you don't want to use white beans, try substituting canned chick peas, adding water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed, to reach desired consistency. For an outstanding sandwich, pair the spread with ham or prosciutto and torn basil leaves. Or spoon store-bought olive tapenade over this tasty spread and add a slice of roast turkey."

I am married and have two children. I work in sales and love it. I enjoy cooking and discovering new recipes. I have so many cookbooks that I couldn't begin to name my favorite. Now that I have found zaar, though, there's not much need for cookbooks.
