Number of Servings: 2

Ingredients

    2 medium size red bell peppers
    2 cloves garlic
    5 cherry tomatoes (or one medium tomato)
    2 tbsp soft goat cheese with herbs

Directions

Cut red bell peppers into quarters. Remove stem, seeds, and membranes. Cut tomatoes in half and remove seeds with a small spoon. Peel the garlic cloves and cut them into small slices.

Put the peppers, cloves, and garlic onto a hot griddle or frying pan and turn while cooking. Garlic is done when it is lightly brown (approx 5 minutes). Tomatoes and peppers are done when blackened and soft (approx. 20 minutes for peppers, 10 for tomatoes).

Allow ingredients to cool slightly and add to a food processor. (You can peel the skin off the peppers before adding if you'd like - I enjoy the taste.) Pulse until blended. Add goat cheese and blend. Serve over warm pasta, or will keep in fridge covered for 2-3 days.
Makes two 1/2 cup servings
(Enough to lightly cover one serving of pasta)
