This is a Spanish traditional recipe and I had it at a restaraunt in town that serves traditional Spanish tapas. This was a fantastic dish and I just had to find a recipe. I found this online and it looks exactly like what I had. Enjoy!

These peppers are a great way to use up leftover roasted peppers. They're also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.

I love the combination of flavors in these peppers. The goat cheese is creamy and tangy, the peppers are roasted and slightly sweet, and the balsamic vinegar adds a touch of acidity. It's a perfect balance of flavors.

I'm not a huge fan of goat cheese, but I really enjoyed these peppers. The goat cheese was mild and creamy, and it paired perfectly with the roasted peppers.
