Spring White Bean Dip with Crudites

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of So Delicious® Dairy Free. The opinions, recipe, beautiful food photography and text are all mine. This Spring White Bean Dip with crudites will become your new go-to party appetizer this Spring! It's easy to put together, totally vegan, and such a crowd-pleaser!

What exactly is a crudite (or crudité), you ask?

Well, it's basically an assortment of fresh veggies coarsely chopped and ready to be dipped into something fabulous. For this snack board, I went with a purple + yellow theme:

  • purple (red) cabbage
  • purple grapes
  • purple rainbow carrots
  • yellow bell peppers
  • purple cauliflower
  • purple daikon radishes
  • watermelon radishes

purple veggies for snack tray

You can get everything you need for this fabulous Spring white bean dip at your local Sprouts Farmers Market: house-branded tahini + beans, So Delicious® Dairy Free Unsweetened coconutmilk (the vanilla or plain will work), veggies, lemons, and spices. You know what else you can get there? Gorgeous Spring blooms! They have a beautiful selection of fresh flowers (and even some potted ones) as well as fresh herbs.

The dip has a rich nutty flavor from the pine nuts, is uber creamy because of the So Delicious® Dairy Free coconutmilk, and is full of fiber from the white cannellini beans + roasted daikon radish. It's topped with toasted sesame oil and black sesame seeds.

In addition to the crudites, I added some almond flour crackers and lentil turmeric crackers for dipping. Feel free to use whatever you have on hand. These boards are perfect for mixing and matching and using up whatever you have in the fridge or pantry.

I also added a simple fig jam to the mix, as I like to have an assortment of dips.
