Roasted red peppers give this spread smoky sweetness. You can substitute 1
1/2 cups bottled roasted red bell peppers. Serve with toasted bagel chips or raw
vegetables.
- 2 red bell peppers
- 1 (15-ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon rind
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Preheat broiler.
Cut bell peppers in half lengthwise; discard seeds and membranes.
Place pepper halves, skin sides up, on a foil-lined baking sheet; flatten
with hand. Broil 10 minutes or until blackened. Place in a zip-top plastic bag;
seal. Let stand 5 minutes. Peel and chop. Place bell peppers and remaining
ingredients in a food processor, and process until smooth.
