Roasted red peppers give this spread smoky sweetness. You can substitute 1 1/2 cups bottled roasted red bell peppers. Serve with toasted bagel chips or raw vegetables. You can also top crostini with this spread and a slice of fresh mozzarella. Ingredients:
2 red bell peppers |
1 (15-ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained |
2 tablespoons tomato paste |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon rind |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
dash of ground red pepper |
Directions:
1. Preheat broiler. 2. Cut bell peppers in half lengthwise; discard seeds and membranes. Place pepper halves, skin sides up, on a foil-lined baking sheet; flatten with hand. Broil 10 minutes or until blackened. Place in a zip-top plastic bag; seal. Let stand 5 minutes. Peel and chop. Place bell peppers and remaining ingredients in a food processor, and process until smooth. |
