Re: Need healthy recipe idea to bring to xmas party.

I LOVE this dip:

Roasted Red Pepper Dip
1 medium sized egg plant, chopped into a few pieces
2 red peppers whole
1 bulb of garlic - wrap in foil
1 medium/large onion cut in quarters

Put all these things on a baking tray and drizzle with a little oil and some kosher salt. Put in a preheated 425 oven for like 20 or 30 mins - the skin on the peppers will turn black and you can tell when it is all roasted.

Then remove the skin from the peppers and pull off the top with the seeds attached. Squeeze the garlic, it will pop right out of its skin. Put everything into a food pro, add some salt, pepper, and a little drizzle of olive oil, and red pepper flake if you want a kick. Puree into a creamy dip, it will have the consistency almost of a hummus.

Serve chilled with pita chips or veggies.

If you have leftovers of this dip it is fantastic over grilled chicken/pork.
