Roasted Peppers & Feta Salad

I found this recipe on the Whole Foods website. ( wish we had a whole foods here)

2 bell peppers, roasted and seeded,  and cut into 1 inch pieces ( I used red and yellow)
feta cheese (recipe calls for 1 pound) cut into cubes
1 cup pitted greek olives ( I used 1/2 cup)
1 small red onion, diced ( any sweet onion) ( I only used a 1/4 of a onion)
3 garlic cloves, minced ( I used 1 garlic clove -it was plenty)
2 Tbl olive oil
1 Tbl balsamic vinegar
2 tsp chopped fresh thyme ( I didn't have any I will use it next time)
lemon juice from 1/2 a lemon
fresh cracked pepper and sea salt

Gently toss everything together in a resealable bowl. Cover and chill at least 5 hours before serving.
*I added some lemon zest

Jalapeno Heaven!
You can also substitute small green, red and yellow bell peppers in place of the jalapeno's.

These are YUMMY and ADDICTIVE!

• jalapenos/ or small bell peppers
• cream cheese - can also use cream cheese and chive flavor from tub, but not whipped
• bacon
• toothpicks

Cut jalapeno, or bell pepper in half lengthwise. Take out membrane and seeds by scraping with a spoon. Fill jalapeno halves with cream cheese. Cut bacon slices into 4 pieces. Stretch bacon around jalapeno and secure with a toothpick. Bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes.

*I bake for 30 minutes and finish off with a shot from the broiler for 4 minutes to crisp the bacon.
