These are sooo good for you! Beautiful to look at and even better to eat! Peppers are low in calories but rich in antioxidant vitamins A and C. Jarred roasted peppers are very tasty, but homemade roasted peppers taste fresher and do not have added ingredients. These can be kept in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

How To Make ~how to roast red peppers~

  • Step 1
    Preheat broiler. Cut peppers in half lengthwise; discard seeds and membranes.
  • Step 2
    Place skin side up on a foil lined baking sheet. Flatten with hand.
  • Step 3
    Broil for 15 min., till blackened. Place in a zip closed bag; seal. Let stand for 15 min. Peel, add salt if desired.
  • Step 4
    Place in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. I like to use them on sandwiches, or in salads, scrambled eggs and my feta-chicken burgers (recipe posted on this website).
