My friend Lori made this dish at a party in Oregon a few years ago, and I’ve been making it ever since. Unlike most artichoke dips, it’s not overly oily and full of mayo. Instead, it uses Great Northern beans to give the dip body, but still has the artichokes, garlic, lemon and Parmesan cheese for flavor.
Originally from Cooking Light, it’s a nice alternative to high-fat dips. Great served with pita chips or anything else crunchy.

- 1/2 cup sour cream

- divided
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, divided
