Roasted Red Pepper Dip with Walnuts and Thyme

3 Comments

Jump to Recipe - Print Recipe

Super good for you, this roasted red pepper dip with walnuts and thyme also adds garlic and just a touch of cayenne for a bright, intense flavor perfect for dipping or even served over steamed vegetables.

Roasted Red Pepper Dip served in a white bowl

Look. At. This. Beauty! The rich, red color alone should make your mouth water and your fingers itch to grab a cracker, carrot stick or… some of you are just going to stick in your finger, so you can see if the flavor matches the intense color. Let me tell you, it does and then some. Red peppers from a jar! Plus walnuts, thyme, cayenne and garlic come together easily right here:

Ingredients in a food processor

Include some chia seeds if you’ve got ’em, a splash of cider vinegar and olive oil. In a food processor, just process until smooth. What could be easier than that?  The cayenne gives just enough heat and everything else adds freshness.

Cook’s note: This dip is amazing as a spread for grilled turkey burgers!
