THIS IS A LEFT-OVER RECIPE FOR USE WITH THE AROMATIC CANNELLINI BEANS MASTER RECIPE.

Puree beans, lemon juice, garlic and cumin in blender or food processor. If needed, thin with a little water or olive oil.

Toast thick slices of crusty bread under the broiler on both sides.

Spread the bean puree over bread and top with thinly sliced cucumber.

NOTES : This recipe can be used as hors d'oeuvre using toast points instead of whole slices of bread. Also good to use is cocktail bread cut in half diagonally.
