Thanks mykelti. I hydrated them 1st and it turned out great. I also added some garlic powder and salt for seasoning. Everyone really liked this dip!

This dip was excellent. Many of the guests asked for the recipe. Will definitely make it again.

The comments I received from my family (I agreed) was that the favor was lacking...it needed a little more kick in the seasoning department...next time I will try with a sweet and spicy sausage.

Yes, you hydrate the tomatoes first. Also, I would not use the ones in oil - it changes the flavoring of the dip.

yes, you hydrate them before you put them in. you can also buy sundried tomatoes in jar. they are in oil. i would let the oil absorb into a paper towel before putting them in order not to add any grease to the dip. i haven't made this yet.

Very good. I used fat free cream cheese and lite sour cream to save on calories. Thought it needed a bit of salt. Dip tasted even better made a day in advance.

I made this recipe for a bridal shower, and everyone, even the bride-to-be who's not a fan of tomatoes loved it. I would call it more of a spread than a dip, and can't wait to try it on bagels, or maybe bagel chips.
