Default New bean dip - South Beach Friendly

So, I love hummus, but needed a change. Found a new recipe in Cooking Light - but lacked ingredients. Here is what I came up w/ & it's nice.

Ingredients:

1 can of butter beans
2 to 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 to 3 cloves garlic
1 or two Tbsp tomato paste
Juice of ~ 1/2 lemon

Chop or crush the garlic.

Drain the can. Put beans in the food processor. Grind.

Add the olive oil, ( 1 to 2 Tbsp)

Add the garlic. Grind.

Add the tomato paste. Grind.

Add the lemon juice. Grind.

Taste. Need more olive oil? Add.

I don't think it needs any added salt, but YMMV.

Good as dip or for putting in a salad to give it some heft.
