Tomatoes are amazing for you for so many different reasons too! Check them out here!

Serves: makes a cereal bowl full

Ingredients:

Sun dried tomatoes – about 6 – 8 pieces (depending on how you want the tomato-pepper taste balance)

1 big red pepper

1 clove crushed garlic

1/2 squeezed lemon

Crushed pepper to your taste

A good glug of olive oil if your sun dried tomatoes came dry

Half a fresh raw tomato

A pinch of cayenne pepper

2 big garlic cloves

Instructions:

1. Bake or grill the red pepper and garlic until they are soft and getting slightly charred round the edges. This is usually for 20 minutes in the oven at 175 decrees Celcius or under a medium grill for 15 minutes turning them over once. Keep a good eye on this as our appliances vary!

2. Add everything into the food processor including the cooked peppers and blend! The mixture will remain a little ‘chunky’ rather than come to a smooth paste – that would be overworking the food too much.

To make it go further – add a little yoghurt, more fresh tomatoes, a little water, some herbs like fresh coriander or mint, coconut yoghurt or creme fraiche.

Enjoy!
