Stewed Peppers with Tomatoes, Onions, and Garlic

I think this recipe deserves a better name, unless, of course, the word "stewed” brings to mind melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness …..it doesn’t for me but that’s exactly what this dish is.

Sweet bell peppers are slowly simmered with onions, garlic and tomatoes until they’re almost silky in texture. The tomatoes dissolve and help create a sauce that has just enough acidity to balance the sweetness of the peppers.

I served it hot as a side dish but I agree with the author that it would make an excellent topping for pasta, bruschetta, polenta etc…
