Roasted Red Pepper Walnut Spread
What a crowd pleaser! This spread is a great take-a-long appetizer for parties served on endive, or gluten-free crackers. My family is also very fond of a dollop on top of a quinoa burger or spread on a chicken sandwich between leaves of romaine. Yum!
Ingredients
- 1 12 oz. jar roasted red peppers drained
- 1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes packed in oil drained and patted dry with paper towel
- 1/4 cup coarse bread crumbs
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 tbsp red wine or balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/4 tsp cayenne
- 1/4 cup olive oil extra virgin
Instructions

Notes
- Spread can be made up to 2 days ahead and chilled. Bring to room temperature before serving.
- Use organic ingredients when possible
- For gluten free option, toast a slice of gluten free bread, cool and break into small breadcrumbs or use a rolling pin to crush 1/3 cup gluten-free crackers in a paper bag.
