Roasted Pepper and Avocado Salad


Ingredients
2 red bell peppers
2 orange bell peppers
2 yellow bell peppers
2 ripe avocados, halved, pitted and peeled
3 shallots, thinly sliced
1/4 cup FILIPPO BERIO® Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove garlic, crushed
  Finely grated peel and juice of 1 lemon
  Salt and freshly ground black pepper
   
Place bell peppers on baking sheet. Broil, 4 to 5 inches from heat, 5 minutes on each side or until entire surface of each bell pepper is blistered and blackened slightly. Place bell peppers in paper bag. Close bag; cool 15 to 20 minutes. Cut around cores of bell peppers; twist and remove. Cut bell peppers lengthwise in half. Peel off skin with paring knife; rinse under cold water to remove seeds. Slice bell peppers into 1/2-inch-thick strips; place in shallow dish. Cut avocados into 1/4-inch-thick slices; add to bell peppers. Sprinkle with shallots.
In small bowl, whisk together olive oil, garlic, lemon peel and juice. Pour over bell pepper mixture. Cover; refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
