Cucumber Roll-ups with Sun Dried Tomato Sauce


Ingredients:
1 large cucumber
Raw Bean-Free Hummus
Sun Dried Tomato Sauce (recipe below)

Directions:

To create your cucumber rolls, you’ll need a mandolin or a wide vegetable peeler
Slice the cucumber lengthwise, into very thin slices.


Because they are so thin, you’ll want to double-up the slices for each roll, like so:


Apply a thin layer of of hummus lengthwise down each slice.


Then roll up, and top each roll with a dollop of tomato sauce!



Sun Dried Tomato Sauce
makes about 1 1/2 cups

Ingredients:

3 oz. sun dried tomatoes
2 roasted red peppers (here’s an easy how-to-guide on roasting peppers)
1/2 cup water
2 cloves raw garlic
1/4 cup fresh basil
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

Directions:

In a high-speed blender, blend all the ingredients until smooth and creamy.

This makes a very thick, richly tomato-flavored sauce.
 Feel free to add more liquid, or adjust the ingredients, to suit your tastes!
