Layered Pesto and Roasted Red Pepper Dip image

I found this delicious dip recipe on a box of Wheat Thins. The taste is so amazing and elegant. If I didn't know better, I would have thought there was wine in the recipe. I tried each layer seperately and they were good - but perfect together on a cracker. The photo shown is what this recipe makes....for company, I would double it if I were you. Pesto and Red Pepper...a great combination now in my book!

This dip is a great way to use up leftover pesto. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat vegetables. I roasted the red peppers myself and it was definitely worth the extra effort.
