Roasted Bell Peppers

The recipe for this is pretty straightforward.
You will need:
1-2 large red, yellow, green and/or orange bell peppers
4-5 unpeeled cloves of garlic (peel them after they have roasted)
some herbs such as thyme and rosemary
generous amount of olive oil
salt and/or pepper

Preheat oven to 375 Fahrenheit. Slice peppers thinly, break apart cloves of garlic and toss in along with several springs of fresh thyme and rosemary. Plave ingredients in a medium size glass baking dish, add in lots of olive oil, stir so that peppers are evenly coated and place in the oven. The roasting will take about 35-40 minutes, depending on the pan, oven and peppers. Just make sure that the peppers are soft and just beginning to brown. If they are taking substantially longer, you can turn the oven up to 400 Fahrenheit and cook for a few minutes (5 or 10) to help them brown. Yum!
