*If you don’t want to buy a jar of roasted red peppers, you can roast a red bell pepper yourself either on the grill, over the fire of your stove top, or in an oven at 400 degrees for about 10-15 minutes until it’s blackened. Place the blackened bell pepper in a zip lock back and set aside for 10 minutes. This will help you peel of the skin of the roasted red pepper super easily!
