Pescatarian Cilantro-Lime Carrot & White Bean Snack Box

Bright, zesty, and genuinely satisfying, this snack box is the kind of thing you'll want to meal-prep every single week. Crunchy carrot sticks get paired with a silky white bean dip blended with olive oil, fresh lime juice, garlic, cumin, and a touch of turmeric — it's creamy, earthy, and just a little citrusy in the best way. The cilantro-lime drizzle spooned over the top adds a pop of freshness that takes the whole thing from simple to seriously crave-worthy. Everything here is completely plant-based and naturally free of meat and poultry, so it fits a pescatarian lifestyle without any substitutions or workarounds needed. It comes together quickly in a food processor and stores well in the fridge for up to three days, making it an ideal grab-and-go option for busy afternoons. A pinch of red pepper flakes on top gives it just enough heat to keep things interesting without overwhelming the other flavors.

Ingredients

2 servings

For the white bean dip

1 can (15 oz) white beans (cannellini or navy), drained and rinsed
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, divided
2 tbsp fresh lime juice (from about 1 lime)
1 clove garlic, minced
½ tsp ground cumin
¼ tsp ground turmeric
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper

For the cilantro-lime drizzle

¼ cup fresh cilantro leaves, loosely packed
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 pinch salt

For the snack box

4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into sticks
¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

1
Peel the carrots and cut them into sticks roughly 3–4 inches long and ½ inch wide. Divide evenly between two snack boxes or containers and set aside.
2
Add the drained white beans, 3 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp lime juice, garlic, cumin, turmeric, salt, and black pepper to a food processor. Process until smooth and creamy, about 60 seconds, scraping down the sides once halfway through. If the dip is thicker than you'd like, add water 1 tsp at a time and pulse until it reaches a spreadable consistency.
