  1. Great recipe! This spread is surely not for everyone's tastes, but it's so very healthy and creamy for those who like "pure" food. I've also added a new skill to my culinary repertoire...skinning roasted red peppers! We liked this both warm and after being refrigerated. The flavors melded a bit more the next day and is great on crackers and fresh veggies. MERP'd for My 3 Chefs '08.

I was born and raised in Boston and continue to live here still. I met my hubby in 1986 and we've been together ever since. We have two children and my family is my passion. Pet peeves? Rudeness, laziness, greed, hatred, and bad manners of any kind. And for some reason, I can't stand listening to someone whistle!
