SUN-DRIED TOMATO AND PARMESAN SPREAD

Garlic lovers will literally eat this up! Fresh basil gives it a lovely aroma; crushed red peppers offer a hint of heat; and sun-dried tomatoes make the creamy sandwich spread bright. It's terrific on crackers, too. -Anndrea Bailey, Huntington Beach, California
