Basic Roasted Red Peppers
"From A Taste of Italy (1996) by The American Cooking Guild:
"Peppers came to Italy from the New World. The special flavor of roasted peppers, especially ripe sweet red ones, will enhance your sauces, salads, or pasta dishes. Enjoy them on slices of grilled garlic bread. Peppers roasted over a hardwood charcoal fire lend a smoky nuance to your favorite dishes."

Hi! I'm very blessed with a daughter and 3 sons, all teens who don't hate me lol. I am passionate about my family, and being an Italian family makes us all foodies by nature! I love to cook just about anything that's rustic style, and I eat fairly naturally and vegetarian.
