Steps:
- Heat oven to 450F degrees.
- Wash peppers and cut in half.
- Remove seeds and stems.
- Place upside down (skin side up) on a cookie sheet coated with olive oil spray.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes or so, until skin of pepper is seriously black.
- Make sure there are no sparks or actively burning ashes on the peppers and place peppers in a brown bag for about 10-15 minutes. This steams the peppers so the skins easily peel off. Rinsing peppers takes away all the roasted flavor, so don't let me catch you doing that.
- Let cool so you can touch them.
- Skin will peel off easily.
- Cut halves into strips, or however you need them to be cut.
- Now you know how to roast a red pepper!
- Good for: Chicken, cheese sauces, tomato sauces, topped on foccacia bread, or a million other things!
- You can also roast a pepper by placing it directly on the burner of a gas stove (NOT ELECTRIC!) turning with tongs every few minutes till skin is black. Continue with paper bag step.

BRUSCHETTA WITH ROASTED RED PEPPERS YUMMY!
This is one of the recipes I've adpoted and made, using a tomato garlic mixture. We loved the added flavor of the roasted red peppers. To save time, you might want to use the roasted red peppers that you buy in a jar, which I think would work very well in this recipe. Hope you enjoy. We sure did.

Steps:
- Brush red pepper with olive oil.
- Roast red bell peppers over a medium indirect heat until charred on all sides. (This took about 20 minutes).
- Place in bowl and cover with plastic wrap to steam.
- When cool enough to handle, peel and remove seeds, cut into strips and reserve.
- Mix the tomatoes, basil, parsley, balsamic vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper together and set aside to allow the flavors to blend.
- Brush each side of french bread with olive oil.
- Grill the bread over medium heat until golden brown on both sides. (about 4-5 minutes on each side, but watch closely).
- Cut each piece of french bread into 2 slices (I didn't use the very ends of the french bread).
- Top with 4-5 slices of roasted pepper and spoon the tomato mixture over the top with some of the juice.
- Add parmesan cheese and enjoy.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, choose ripe, red bell peppers. Look for peppers that are firm and have a deep red color.
- To easily remove the pepper's skin, roast it directly over an open flame or place it under a broiler until the skin is blackened. Once the skin is blackened, place the pepper in a bowl and cover it with plastic wrap. Let it steam for 10 minutes, then remove the skin.
- If you don't have a grill or broiler, you can also roast the peppers in the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and roast the peppers for 20-25 minutes, or until the skin is blackened. Then, follow the steps above to remove the skin.
- Use a good quality olive oil for the bruschetta. This will help to bring out the flavor of the other ingredients.
- Don't skimp on the garlic. Garlic is a key ingredient in bruschetta and it really adds a lot of flavor. You can use fresh garlic or garlic powder, but fresh garlic is always best.
- Use a variety of toppings for your bruschetta. Some popular options include tomatoes, basil, mozzarella cheese, and artichoke hearts. You can also get creative and use other toppings that you enjoy.
- Serve the bruschetta warm or at room temperature. It's best to enjoy it within a few hours of making it.
Conclusion:
Roasted red bell pepper bruschetta is an easy and delicious appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It can be served as part of an antipasto platter or as a main course. The combination of roasted red bell peppers, fresh basil, and tangy balsamic vinegar is sure to please everyone.
