1 Rating & Review for Roasted Sweet Pepper Spread

I happened to have all the ingredients on hand, so thought I would try this as an alternative to boring salsa. This is certainly more trouble than opening a jar, but well worth it for the taste and freshness.
I made it according to directions, though I did substitute stevia for the sugar, and it was very good. Before putting it in the fridge, I added a tablespoon of lime juice and a dash more cayenne and the flavor really perked up.
