Whipped tofu dip with summer peppers and @firehook

Whipped tofu dip with summer peppers and @firehook crackers #firehookpartner

The combo of peak summer produce + something creamy + something crunchy is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.

1 box Firehook classic sea salt crackers
8 oz sweet peppers
1 tbsp olive oil
14 oz firm tofu
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 tbsp miso
1 tbsp peanut butter
1 tsp kosher salt
1 scallion, thinly sliced

1. Heat the oven to 425F.
2. Add the sweet peppers and olive oil to a sheet tray along with a generous pinch of salt. Toss to coat evenly then roast at 425F until charred, 15 to 20 minutes.
3. Let the peppers cool then stem and chop into bite size pieces.
4. In a blender, combine the firm tofu, lemon juice, miso, peanut butter, and kosher salt. Blend on high speed until completely smooth. Taste and add more salt if desired.
5. Transfer the blended dip to a serving bowl and top with the roasted peppers and scallions. Serve with Firehook classic sea salt crackers and vegetables for dipping.
