Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh basil and sun-dried tomatoes are essential for a flavorful dip. Choose ripe, fragrant basil leaves and oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes for the best flavor.

- Season to taste. Add salt and pepper to taste, and adjust the amount of lemon juice and olive oil as needed.
- Serve with your favorite dippers. This dip is great with pita chips, crackers, vegetables, or even grilled chicken or fish.
- Make ahead of time. This dip can be made up to 2 days ahead of time. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature before serving.
