Roasted Pepper Salad
Author Robyn Webb says, "Bell peppers are so tasty when they are raw, so why ever mess with them by roasting them?

Roasted peppers jazz up pasta, eggs, soups, stews, homemade pizza, and many more everyday foods."

Whether made with freekeh or another grain, this recipe is designed to be served as a salad. But it’s equally tasty served at room temperature or warm as a side dish, if you prefer.
