How to Make Herby Bean Dip
Who wants a snack? This inexpensive little dish takes just a few ingredients and is ready to go in minutes. It's also packed with protein and low in fat, which makes it a great and heart-healthy snack for people with diabetes. The fresh herbs really help this dish shine, but they're not necessary. Dried herbs, or even celery leaves or the green part of scallions (green onions), make a perfect substitute. In fact, this is a great way to use them so they don’t go to waste!
