I bought a bag of beautiful baby bell peppers, the colors are so vivid and fresh looking I couldn’t resist. When roasted they become so sweet and tender. A simple way to prepare them would be to toss about 1 pound of them with olive oil, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper and roast them. I am going to take it a step further, please see the recipe below.
