Source of Recipe


Submitted by Michelle Messier






List of Ingredients



• ½ cup chopped fresh basil
  
• 10 oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained and oil reserved
  
• 2 garlic cloves, peeled
  
• ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  
• 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  
• 1 wedge Brie cheese (about ½ pound), thoroughly chilled
  
• Garnish - Fresh Basil Leaves
  






Instructions



1. In food processor, combine basil, sun dried tomatoes, garlic, pepper, and lemon juice. Process until paste forms. Add oil from sun-dried tomatoes or olive oil if texture is very dry (should be spreadable but not too thin).
   
2. Remove Brie from refrigerator and cut in half, horizontally (Brie must be thoroughly chilled to make this possible).
   
3. Spread bottom half with sun-dried tomato mixture and top with remaining Brie half, pressing firmly.
   
4. Bring to room temperature before serving. Serve with water crackers.
