Sunny Baked Peppers With Tomatoes Food

PEPPERS ROASTED WITH GARLIC, BASIL AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with olive oil flavored cooking spray.
• Place the bell pepper halves open side up in the prepared baking dish. In a medium bowl, toss together the cherry tomatoes, basil and garlic. Fill each pepper half with a handful of this mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Cover the dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, then remove the aluminum foil, and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, and sprinkle with herb vinegar. These are equally good served hot or cold.

STEWED PEPPERS WITH TOMATOES, ONIONS AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet or heavy casserole over medium heat and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes, and add the garlic and peppers. Cook, stirring often, for 5 minutes and add 1/2 teaspoon salt. Continue to cook for another 5 minutes, until the peppers are tender.
• Add the tomatoes, thyme, salt, and pepper, bring to a simmer, and simmer, stirring from time to time, until the tomatoes have cooked down somewhat, about 10 minutes. Cover, reduce the heat and simmer over low heat for another 15 to 20 minutes (or longer), stirring from time to time, until the mixture is thick and fragrant. Taste and adjust seasonings. Serve as a side dish, as a topping for pizza, pasta, polenta, rice, or bruschetta, as a filling for an omelet, or stir into scrambled eggs.

SUNNY'S QUICK TOMATO, PEPPERS AND MOZZARELLA SALAD

Refrigerate at least 8 hours, shaking here and there, (if you remember.) Assemble the salad. In a large bowl add tomatoes and bell peppers. Using a slotted spoon transfer marinated mozzarella balls to the large bowl and toss everything together. If more dressing is needed, pour it from the container in which you marinated the mozzarella. Serve salad chilled or room temperature.
