RED PEPPERS MELTED WITH BALSAMIC VINEGAR
I love red peppers and garlic and balsamic vinegar, so this was a no brainer for me! I sometimes add lots of garlic too(5-6 cloves) in with the peppers. You can also add thinly sliced onions. You might want to add just a touch more oil and vinegar if you add more onions. Enjoy! From Outrageous Recipes.
