Roasted Red Pepper Dip

Introduction

This is a flavorful dip that adds a nice tangy, spicy flavor to accompany crudites or crackers!  We used jarred roasted peppers and omitted the molasses and bread crumbs, but it still tastes great!

Ingredients

• 8-oz jar of roasted red bell peppers (make sure to find a brand that doesn’t have added chemical preservatives or sugar)
• 1/2 tsp ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp sea salt, plus more to taste
• 2 tsp chili flakes (plus more to taste)
• 1 clove garlic (minced)
• 1/2 cup raw walnuts (loosely chopped)
• 1 Tbsp olive oil (if your roasted red peppers came in oil, you might need to add less here) 
• 2 Tbsp lemon juice

Preparation

Add all the ingredients into a food processor, and pulse to combine well.  Leave a little texture and avoid it becoming a creamy puree (leave a little bits of the pepper for texture!)
