Leaving out the onions next time, though. I think it was worth it to make the homemade roasted peppers. I did yellow and they made the meal.
Yum yum! Kid's even loved it. I used store bought grilled peppers (in a jar) and sliced ham instead of turkey and it was delicious! My son added salsa to his and loved it.
I made it with leftover chicken and added chives instead of the onions. Very simple to make and would be nice to let your kids help out by grating cheese, or cutting the avocado with a plastic knife. Yummy, and easy to adjust with ingredients you have on hand!
