I'm not sure what went wrong, but my spread turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much oil.

Meh. It was okay. I've had better sun-dried tomato spreads.

This recipe is a lifesaver! I always have sun-dried tomatoes on hand, and now I know what to do with them. This spread is so versatile. I've used it on sandwiches, wraps, and even as a pizza topping.

Not a fan. The texture was a bit too gritty for me. I think I would have preferred a smoother spread.

This was a bit too tangy for me, even though I used half the amount of lemon juice called for in the recipe. Maybe I'll try it again with less lemon juice next time.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and the results are always delicious. I like to add a little bit of garlic powder to mine for an extra kick.
