This was a very tasty snack for us today. I liked the combination of flavors, although I took a real lazy way of preparing it. I didn't use roasted garlic, just some finely chopped and used the roasted red peppers in a jar which we really like. For personal preference I added some extra lemon juice to mine. thanks for sharing a wonderful dish.
