Prep tips for this red pepper dip
Since this is a warm dip, you’ll want to dig into it right out of the oven. If you are taking it to a gathering at someone else’s house, you can easily prep it in advance and stick it in the oven when you arrive. It only takes 20 minutes to warm up, so it’s the perfect on the go appetizer you can take anywhere.
Use a high-powered blender
Cashews form part of the creamy base for this recipe, so you’ll need a high-powered blender or food processor to get the dip nice and creamy. For blenders, we recommend either a vitamix, blendtec or Ninja blender. A food processor with the S-blade will work also, just dump the ingredients in and process until everything is smooth and creamy.
Paleo + Whole30 Dipping options
There are a lot of options for dipping with this warm and creamy roasted red pepper dip. I like pairing a creamy dip with some crunch, so for Whole30 compliance I opted for crunchy sliced veggies. Sliced celery was my favorite. Carrots and radishes worked well too. For Paleo options, there are clean chips/crackers you can use for dipping. Some of our favorites:
Jilz crackers (these taste great and seem to be the “sturdiest” Paleo crackers)Siete tortilla chipsSimple Mills crackers – The sprouted seed crackers are thicker than the almond flour crackers. Not all crackers are Paleo so check your ingredients.
