Ingredients
  

  • 2 15-ounce / 425 g (15 oz) cans white navy beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/4 cup (60 g / 2.12 oz) plain Greek yogurt
  • Zest of 1 large orange, finely grated
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml / 0.2 fl oz) chipotle purée
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml / 0.2 fl oz) fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon (1.5 g / 0.05 oz) sea salt, or to taste
  • 1/2 cup (75 g / 2.65 oz) white onion, finely diced
  • 1 tablespoon (4 g / 0.14 oz) fresh cilantro, chopped
  • For a delicious vegan version, substitute the Greek yogurt with a dairy-free plain yogurt or use 2 tablespoons (30 ml / 1 fl oz) of high-quality olive oil for richness.
  • Control the heat by starting with 1/2 teaspoon (10 ml / 0.3 fl oz) of chipotle purée and adding more to taste. For extra smokiness without much heat, use a pinch of smoked paprika.
  • This dip is fantastic with toasted pita bread, crunchy tortilla chips, or fresh vegetable sticks like carrots, cucumbers, and bell peppers. It also makes a great sandwich spread!

Method
 

  1. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the drained and rinsed white navy beans, Greek yogurt, orange zest, chipotle purée, fresh lime juice, and sea salt.
  2. Secure the lid and process on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  3. Transfer the puréed dip to a serving bowl.
  4. Add the finely diced white onion and chopped cilantro.
  5. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the onion and cilantro into the dip until just combined.
  6. Serve immediately or chill until ready to serve.
