Sun-Dried Tomato and Brazil Nut Dip

This Sun Dried Tomato and Brazil Nut Dip is everything I was looking for to eat with crackers or jicama batons. It is raw, assuming your tomatoes were actually sun dried, and it has a great texture. The inspiration came when my drum instructor shared some recipes from a time when she was raw. I modified to my liking and here it is. The Brazil nuts are high in selenium, an essential nutrient, and 37% of the fats in Brazil nuts are polyunsaturated fatty acids, a type of fat that has been shown to benefit heart health. I’ve made this recipe a bunch of times already, because it’s that good. You can double the ingredients easily. Try this recipe as a dip, or use it as a topping for zucchini noodles.
