Cream Cheese: Cream cheese makes the dip nice and smooth. It also adds a tangy flavor.
Garlic Cloves: No savory dip is complete without a little (or a lot of) garlic!
Fresh Basil Leaves: Basil is blended with the other ingredients. It adds nice, minty aromatics!
Olive Oil: Adds flavor, moisture, and keeps the consistency of the dip perfectly smooth.
Smoked Paprika: Warm and smoky, this spice is a must-add!
Salt: You only need a little to enhance the overall flavor of this roasted red pepper dip.
Black Pepper: Helps make the flavor of the dip more complex.
Crushed Red Pepper Flakes: Red pepper flakes give this dip the perfect hint of spice. Add more to taste if you like it spicy!

What to Serve With Roasted Red Pepper Dip

The flavors of this bright and savory dip go well with just about any dippable! Carrots and celery are always a good pairing- the cool flavor of the veggies and the warm spice of the dip is a great combo. Tortilla chips are a must, and you can make these fresh in the air fryer if you have one! Potato chips, pita chips, crackers, and crostini are all great options, too. I love serving roasted red pepper dip with a mix of all of these so my guests get to choose their favorite!
