This recipe makes a lot - and that is a good thing, because it is eaten as fast as it is taken out of the oven. Great with pita chips, crackers, or carrot sticks. I have successfully cut the recipe in half. This one will be a favorite of cheese lovers!

SUN-DRIED TOMATO AND ROASTED RED PEPPER DIP

Sun-Dried Tomato and Roasted Red Pepper Dip image

This is a fantastic tasting dip that I use on everything from fresh veggies, to chips, to sandwiches. Easy to make, and tastes better as it sits in the fridge...YUMMY!!! Sometimes, instead of using the food processor, I finely dice the peppers and tomatoes, and mix by hand for a more chunky dip. Either way, you'll want to double this one!!
