🍽️ Serving Suggestions

- Spread a generous layer on warm flatbread, drizzle a touch of olive oil, and sprinkle fresh herbs for a quick mini‑pizza vibe.
- Pair the dip with a crisp glass of Sauvignon Blanc or a sparkling cucumber‑mint water for a light, refreshing contrast.
💡 Chef's Tips & Variations
- Give the tomatoes a balsamic glaze before roasting for a richer, slightly tangy depth.
- Swap the butter beans for cannellini or great‑Northern beans if you prefer a milder base.
- Stir in a pinch of smoked paprika or a splash of smoked liquid aminos for a subtle, smoky kick.
- Top the finished dip with toasted pine nuts or crushed red pepper for added texture and heat.
