This recipe immediately caught my eye because of the roasted garlic and the roasted red peppers; two of my favorite things to cook with. I followed the recipe to a tee the first time, and while it was good, the amount of lemon juice overpowers everything else in the recipe! I think the lemon juice amount may be a typo. Anyway, I made it again and cut the lemon juice to a 1/4 cup, increased the roasted garlic to a 1/3 cup and left out the half & half (it didn't really need it, to me), and it was to die for. Five stars and highly recommended, just go easy on the lemon juice.

Lovely!! I roasted my own bell peppers since I was roasting garlic. I didn't use the half and half. I also used closer to 1/3 c. of lemon juice. So very close to the actual recipe. It tasted very good, but we felt it would be great as a warm/hot dip. So we popped it in the oven at 350 for maybe 20-25 minutes. We ate it with parmesan garlic pita chips. So great!!! Thanks!

This spread was tasty with the crusty bread. I took this to a Greek themed dinner and it went over pretty well. I only used 4 oz of Feta cheese and I think that was plenty.

A potentially good recipe, but definitely too much lemon juice. I would start with 1/4 to 1/3 cup and then add more to taste. I made it based on the amounts listed and was dissapointed with the final product.

This is really good. I took the advise of the other reviewers and used more roasted garlic. I didn't have any lemon juice so I used lime instead. It turned out great. Thanks

Wow! Delicious! I made a major change by using about 3.5 oz of sundried tomatoes instead of the roasted red peppers. I reduced the lemon juice a bit and roasted a whole bulb of garlic, which ended up being abobut 1/3 cup. This was the first dish at our party to disappear!

Yum-o! I'm pregnant and have been avised to stay away from imported soft cheeses, like feta, which means no Greek restaurant for me! I've been looking for a recipe like this for a while and this was right up my alley! I didn't have any cream cheese so I left that out but it was perfect anyway. I followed the advice of another rater and used minced, not roasted garlic. I would also use a bit less lemon juice than I did (or maybe the cream cheese would cut the acidity if I had used it). Thanks for a great recipe!

yum-eee!! so delicious! i made with a jarred roasted red peppers and 2 heaping tablespoons regular minced garlic from a jar (too lazy to do the roasting myself), about 1/3 cup fresh squeezed lemon and the remaining ingredients as written. well, except for the olive oil and/or half & half. totally delish, just the right amount of garlic and lemon and red pepper flavors. can't wait to serve to my guest tomorrow after the flavors have married. yummers!!
