Eating walnuts regularly offers plenty of health benefits, from providing omega 3 to lowering 'bad' cholesterol. If you're looking for ways to incorporate more nuts into your diet, why not make this walnut and white bean dip.
1 Toast the walnuts in a small dry frying pan over a medium heat for 2–3 min, then transfer all but 1tbsp to a food processor. Drain the beans, reserving 1tbsp liquid, and add both to the blender with the oil, garlic and lemon zest and juice. Blend until smooth. Season with freshly ground black pepper, then add most of the parsley and pulse a few times to combine.
2 Spoon the mixture into a serving dish, drizzle with oil and scatter over the reserved nuts and parsley.
3 Serve with flatbread or vegetable crudités.
