QUICK-ROASTED SALSA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

• Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender. Add the lime zest and juice and puree until smooth, being careful not to fill the blender too full. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the cilantro. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Goes great with chips or alongside enchiladas.

• TO STUFF THE PEPPERS:.
• Divide the filling among the peppers. Sprinkle the Parmesan on top of the peppers.
• Bake in the middle of the oven for 15 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the filling is hot.
