Low Carb Roasted Red Pepper Dip

This roasted red pepper dip is a low carb adaptation of a traditional muhammara dip. Typically made with the addition of pomegranate molasses, this dip can be sweetened with your preferred low carb sweetener of choice, or this step can be omitted entirely.

Perfect served with low carb crackers or vegetables for dipping, or as a relish to accompany roasted chicken.
