ROASTED GARLIC AND SUN-DRIED TOMATO BUTTER

3 cloves roasted garlic

3 oil-packed, sun-dried tomato halves, drained and finely chopped

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, room temperature

In a small bowl, combine all ingredients. Mash gently with a fork until thoroughly mixed. Transfer to a serving container and chill until firm.

Alternatively, transfer the blended butter to a sheet of plastic wrap, cover, then form the butter into a log and chill. Once the butter is firm, it can be cut into pats.

Makes about 1/3 cup.
