Instructions
Place tomatoes (with the oil they are packed in), olive oil, garlic, salt and basil together in a food processor
7 ounce jar sun-dried tomatoes,
½ cup chopped fresh basil,
2 cloves garlic,
2 tablespoons olive oil,
¼ teaspoon salt
Pulse until just broken down
Add additional olive oil if needed
Serve right away or cover and refrigerate
Notes
If the sun-dried tomatoes are whole or are in large chunks, chop them into smaller pieces before adding them to the food processor.
This recipe is flexible. Add more garlic if you love garlic or less if you don't. Throw in extra basil. Taste and adjust to your liking.
Refrigerating will make the spread very firm and solid. Allow the spread to come to room temperature before serving.
For best results, use within two weeks.
