If you have been looking for one fantastic recipe in your life, then it's here. This fantastic vegan side dish with oven roasted green peppers seasoned with lime and sea salt is something out of the ordinary. It's luxurious, it's fresh and while I'm eating it, my mouth is - kind of - watering for more.

I had been thinking about doing this dish for a very long time and now it is finally here. You can really serve it the way you want to - as a side dish to a dinner, part of being in a buffet, an appetizer, a snack to the drink or what ever. It's delicious no matter and I'm sure you'd feel the same.

What Peppers?

I have used sweet pepperoni Lombardo but you can also use small pimientos de patron. Both work fantastic and get moisty and full of flavor when roasting them in the oven.


Seasoning?

There are endless of variations possible for these delightful oven roasted green peppers. You can add garlic, chili flakes or even just salt and pepper. My personal favorite is the one with sea salt and just a few drops of lime though. It’s a fantastic combination of flavors and it tastes really fresh. You should really try this.
