Easy Appetizer: Roasted Red Pepper and Walnut Dip

January 18, 2014
We appreciate a dip that isn’t solely cheese-based and fit for crackers. This easy dip recipe from Seasonal and Savory is a rich blend of roasted sweet bell peppers, toasted walnuts and garlic, with heated spices for a little kick. The creator likes to serve this dip with olives, raw veggies or cooked shrimp.
 
 
Ingredients:
 
3 large, sweet bell peppers, roasted, seeded, and peeled (about 1½ cups)
1½ cups walnut halves, lightly toasted
2-3 cloves garlic, peeled
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
juice of one lemon
2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses (if you don’t have this, you can omit it)
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons Aleppo pepper
salt, to taste
