Angie and I are always experimenting with fun ways of making healthy snacks that taste great, satisfy our cravings, and are packed with nutrients. In yesterdays post I shared an avocado dip that we experimented with.

Today we would like to share our homemade roasted red pepper dip, which is at the top of our favorite healthy snack options. Here’s a video of Angie and I demonstrating how to make roasted red pepper dip…

Roasted Red Pepper Dip: A Healthy Snack Option

Here’s the ingredients:

  • 6 Red Peppers
  • 1 Large Eggplant (or 4 small Eggplants)
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Small amount of cold pressed extra virgin olive oil

    • Preparation:

  • Coat the red peppers and eggplant with extra virgin olive oil
  • Place on the barbeque set on high for 10 minutes
  • Flip the red peppers and egg plant over and cook for another 10 minutes until they are charred all around
  • Place the red peppers in a brown paper bag immediately after taking them off the barbeque. Close the bag and allow them to sit for 15 minutes
  • Peel the charred skin off of the eggplant and red peppers and place in a blender
  • Add 3 garlic gloves and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
  • Blend until desired smoothness.
  • Serve with Triscuits, tortilla chips, or any healthier option that you can think of.

    • Give this tasty and healthy snack a try and let us know how you enjoy it.
