Roasted Bell Pepper Salad
When bell peppers are in season, I like to roast them. My mom would usually make this salad for us while growing up... it was delicious! I usually do a simple vinaigrette dressing for the salad... the typical vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper. But this time around, I wanted to make it a bit more special for dinner. I chose to add some capers, sliced kalamata olives, and a fine dusting of feta cheese. I suppose it was a bit more Greek.... you can also leave it plain. But, putting the marinated roasted peppers in a 3-inch ring gives the salad height... and a more elegant look. The salad is also great as a side dish, stuffed in pita bread, and even on sandwiches/burgers. Chop them up and make a roasted bell pepper dip. Serve it with some crostini/pita chips. You can place pepper strips on top of pizzas or process them with some roasted tomatoes and make a salsa.... there are so many uses for them.

Take a 3-inch ring and place it in the center of a plate.
Place a few red bell pepper strips at the bottom of the ring.
