Roasted Red Pepper & Almond Dip
Ingredients
¾ cups almond butter
¼ cup nutritional yeast
2 garlic cloves
3 tbsp lemon juice
1 cup fresh basil leaves, lightly packed
3 tbsp tahini or cashew butter
2 roasted red bell peppers
Roast Peppers:
Turn broiler on high. Place peppers on a baking sheet and roast until the skin turns dark, rotate and continue to roast until the skin turns dark and appears burnt. Remove from oven and seal in a bowl with plastic wrap or air-tight container (the trapped steam will loosen the skin) Let peppers cool for 15 minutes. Gently peel off the skin. Slice lengthwise, careful to removing seeds and pulp.
Assemble Ingredients:
Place all ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth. Serve as a sandwich spread and layer with fresh vegetables or serve as a dip with chips or veggies
