• Ready In: 30mins
• Ingredients: 8
• Yields: 1 pan
• Serves: 10

ingredients

• 1 (16 ounce) jar roasted red peppers, drained
• 1 (8 ounce) package goat cheese, room temperature
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted
• 1⁄2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
• 5 slices garlic bread

directions

1. Swirl half of the olive oil into an attractive baking dish - 9x13 or so.
2. Combine the softened Goat Cheese with the garlic, stuff gently into the Red Peppers and place them in a single layer into the baking dish. Sprinkle with the pine nuts, red pepper flakes and pepper, drizzle with remaining olive oil.
3. Cut garlic bread (I use the frozen box of garlic toast) into "fingers" and kind of place them on their sides in the dish, so they will brown.
4. Bake about 350 degrees for about 15 minutes.
