This delicious vegan recipe is going to be on repeat all summer long at our house. It makes delicious sandwiches and spreads for picnics at the beach and doubles as a dip for snacking around the pool on hot afternoons. We love all sorts of white beans for this but the sweet, protein packed White Tepary Beans are our favorites here.
Highly acclaimed for it's nutritional value the stotoah bavi (white tepary bean) is noted for its unique and delicious naturally sweet yet savory flavor and creamy texture. The white tepary bean make delicious hummus, soups, salads, dips and spreads.
Ramona Farms shares with us their traditional foods grown on the ancestral lands of the Akimel O'Odham (Gila River Pima) tribe in Arizona's Sonora Desert. An ingredient in the Slow Food Ark of Taste, the tepary bean is believed to be the world’s most drought tolerant bean, and higher in fiber and protein than most other beans with a low glycemic index and superior taste.

This delicious vegan spread is bursting with fresh garden flavor. Enjoy it with bread and tomatoes for a vegan caprese or as a creamy layer on veggie sandwiches and wraps. It's also great as a protein packed dip.
