Bean Dip With Horseradish image

A great vegetarian recipe from Dr. Andrew Weil. Tasty and good for you too. This could also be used as a filling with lettuce and veggies for a pita sandwich. Dr. Weil does not have it listed in his recipe but I like a dash or two of hot sauce and some red pepper flakes added to my dip.

2 cups pinto beans (if you're using canned beans be sure to drain and rinse) or 2 cups great northern beans (if you're using canned beans be sure to drain and rinse)
