This appetizer spread is a big hit at Keller parties! Why? It's delicious, EASY, and perfect for using homegrown basil and parsley. Make a double batch - one for now, one for wintertime. Our Sun-Dried Tomato Spread freezes well. Enjoy!

Ingredients

 

  • 1 (8 ½ oz.) jar sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon fresh minced garlic
  • ¼ cup firmly packed fresh basil leaves
  • ¼ cup firmly packed fresh parsley leaves

Directions

*Make this dip the day before serving so flavors can blend.

  • Scoop sun-dried tomatoes out of the jar and place in a food processor.
  • Add a small amount of the oil. (If you use all of the oil, the mixture is too oily. If you don’t use the oil, the mixture will be hard to spread.)
  • Add the remaining ingredients.
  • Process until pureed and well-blended. Serve at room temperature with water crackers. Makes 1 cup of spread.
