Roasted Bell Peppers Side Dish Recipe

Ingredients:
8 large bell peppers (2 green, 2 red, 2 orange, 2 yellow)
Non-Stick Fat Free Cooking Spray (I like Trader Joe’s Olive Oil Cooking Spray)
1 tbsp Kosher Salt

Directions:
Preheat oven to broil. Spray a large cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Wash and clean peppers and then cut off stems and remove insides. Slice peppers into thin, 1/4″ rings. In a large mixing bowl, toss pepper rings while spritzing them with the non-stick cooking spray. Make sure all the pepper rings are lightly, but thoroughly coated. Then toss in the kosher salt and make sure all the pepper rings are salted. I like mine a bit salty, but you can feel free to use as little or as much salt as you want. Scatter pepper rings evenly onto cookie sheet and broil until edges of pepper rings begin to blacken (approximately 20 minutes). Remove cookie sheet from over and using tongs, toss the pepper rings around a bit so that they can all cook evenly. Return to over and broil for another 10 – 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool 5 minutes. Enjoy!
