SUN-DRIED TOMATO SPREAD
I use this tomato-based spread in place of jelly on toast and bagels. My favorite is spreading it on tomato-basil bagels. I usually place 1/2 the spread in the refrigerator, and freeze the remainder for later use.

Steps:
- Pound chicken between two sheets of wax paper, flattening to 1/4 inch thickness using a rolling pin or mallet.
- Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
- Mix together cream cheese, two-thirds of garlic, and sun-dried tomatoes; then spread cream cheese filling over one side of each chicken breast.
- Sprinkle 3/4 teaspoon basil and 1/4 cup parmesan cheese over breasts; roll up and secure with a toothpick in each breast.
- Place in an 8-inch-square baking pan coated with cooking spray and bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let stand for 10 minutes.
- While chicken is cooking (or standing), combine plum tomatoes, olive oil, red wine vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, rest of minced garlic, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and 3/4 teaspoon basil. Cut chicken into slices; serve bruschetta (tomato mix) over the slices.
- Any leftover bruschetta can be served with toasted or grilled French/Italian bread slices on another day for a great snack/appetizer!
Tips:
- Choose high-quality ingredients. Start with sun-dried tomatoes that are plump and have a deep red color. Use fresh basil and garlic for the best flavor.
- Don't overcook the garlic. Cook it just until it is fragrant and slightly golden brown.
- Use a food processor or blender to achieve a smooth and creamy texture. If you don't have either of these appliances, you can mash the tomatoes and basil by hand, but it will take a little more effort.
- Season the spread to taste. Add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice until it reaches the desired flavor.
- Serve the spread immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later use. It will keep for up to 1 week.
Conclusion:
This creamy sun-dried tomato spread is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. It is perfect for spreading on sandwiches, wraps, and crackers. It can also be used as a dip for vegetables or as a marinade for chicken or fish. With its rich and flavorful taste, this spread is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
