====== Better Than Iggy's Sundried Tomato Spread ======

/* Description */

This started out as an attempt to equal Iggy's Sundried Tomato Spread, but it wound up being better.

<WRAP right>{(rater>id=100|name=Simple Sundried Tomato Spread|type=rate|headline=off)}</WRAP>

|**Preheat:** °|**Yield:** 1 1/2 cups||
|**Prep:** 0:05|**Wait:** 0:00|**Cook:** 0:00|

====== Ingredients ======
  * 1 8.2 oz jar Trader Joe's Julienned Sun-Dried Tomatoes in Oil
  * 3 oz can Tomato Paste
  * Olive Oil
  * 2 tablespoons fresh Basil (2 tsp dried)
  * 1 teaspoon minced Garlic
  * pinch of Salt
  * Black Pepper
  * pinch Crushed Red Pepper
  * 1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
  * 1 6oz container Trader Joe's Crumbled Feta
  * 1/2 teaspoon Sugar (optional)

====== Directions ======
  - Pour off the oil and add additional olive oil to make 1/4 cup.
  - Put all ingredients in a food processor and pulse until as chunky as desired. Let chill covered in the refrigerator.

====== Notes ======
  * Also good if you want to add some parmesano romano and/or ricotta cheese.
  * Pulse in spurts, so keep it as "chunky" or as smooth as i want. another option is to reserve a few of the sundrieds and add them in at the end with just a couple of whirls to keep in some nice chunks. i also would add the capers in at that same point, so that they stay mostly whole.
