Tried this from a gal from another forum last nite and it's delicious. It was a hectic evening, so didn't chill it and we ended up using this as dinner...
I haven't even taken time to rewrite it yet! I added toasted pine nuts - good flavor.
Smoked Tomato dip
I just mixed this up for today...It's easy,and I have to say even without sitting in the refrigerator to chill, then bring back to oom temp, it is really tasty.
You just put everything into your f/p and pulse,scraping down the sides several times and your done...
you need:
I pack of 3oz. smoked sun dried tomatoes, one 8oz. cream cheese, 1/2 cup mayo, 1/2 cup,sour cream, salt,pepper, I added a little more of the mayo and sour cream,tabasco as much or as little as you want. For the salt I used a grey salt with sun dried tomatoes and garlic in it and 4 green onions tops and bottoms..Pulse on and off, scrape down sides of f/p several times..Put into serving bowl cover and chill. Remove let come to room temp and serve with crackers or baguettes..Now, I tasted mine with a piece of celery and it was delicious. I think I'm going to do a quick veggie tray to go with the dip as well..

This is why we had a hectice evening - Roy designed and mfg'd. the device to hold a rocket on the launch pad and the rocket was having it's 2nd testing yesterday on an atoll east of Japan - he was so excited and nervous, he didn't realize he had a martini AND glass of wine....

AND IT WAS SUCCESSFUL!!!!! His design worked thru the 1st launch also, but the rocket only went about 25' in the air and came back down. This one went perfect!!
and this is what we ended up having for dinner -
