Red Pepper Bruschetta

"This Red Pepper Bruschetta is so EASY to make and DELICOUS!"



Allowing the red peppers to "smoke" in a paper bag for just a short time makes all the difference in the taste of this low sodium recipe.

You can easily prepare most everything in advance and then broil your Bruschetta just before serving.

Pair this easy appetizer up with a mug of soup and you have a meal in under than 30 minutes.

Red Pepper Toasted Bruschetta

 Bruschetta with Red Peppers
 
 
2   red bell peppers  
10   fresh basil leaves, diced  
3 Tbs    olive oil  
1   french baguette  
6   garlic cloves  
1/2 cup    goat cheese  
 
1 Preheat your broiler.
2 Slice the baguette lengthwise, down the center. Cut each half into 4 sections. Reserve.
3 Peel and mince the garlic, reserve.
4 Wash, seed and cut the peppers into long quarters. Place them on a broiling sheet and broil until they are mostly blackened, about 5-8 minutes. Remove and place in a paper bag. Close bag and let the peppers set in there for 10-15 minutes to allow the Smokey flavors to blend.
5 Remove the peppers from the bag and peel off the back skins. Slice the peppers into small strips.
6 In a bowl, mix the peppers with the oil, garlic and the chopped basil.
7 On a baking sheet, arrange the bread and toast under the broiler until golden. Remove from the broiler and top with the red pepper mixture. Top with crumbled goat cheese and serve.
