Instructions:
- If the sun-dried tomatoes are not already prepped, soak them in warm water for about 20 minutes to soften them. Drain and pat dry with a paper towel.
- Peel and finely chop the shallots. Set aside.
- In a food processor, add the softened sun-dried tomatoes, chopped shallots, cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise.

- Taste the dip and add salt and pepper if needed. Blend again briefly to incorporate any added seasonings.
