CANELLINI BEAN & ROSEMARY PATE
Canellini beans are good for fibre, iron and magnesium. Legumes/beans are also great for feeding your good gut bacteria. So this is a brilliant all rounder.

Ingredients:
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh garlic
1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
1teaspoon finely grated lemon rind
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Method:
Warm 2 tablespoons olive oil over low heat.
Add garlic and sauté for about a minute.
Add drained beans and sauté for another 1-2 mins.
Remove from heat and mash the beans with a fork to make a rough purée.
Add remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, rosemary, lemon zest, salt and pepper.
This is a lovely dish that I usually add to salads along with homemade hummus to make them more interesting.
