Recipe Note
To roast red peppers:
- Preheat the broiler.
- Place the peppers on broiler pan and place under the broiler.
- Broil on all sides until charred and blackened. Remove from oven.
- Place in a plastic sealable bag and let rest 15 minutes.
- Remove charred skin; core and seed peppers.
To prepare Yogurt Cheese:
- Line a colander with 2 layers of coffee filters or cheesecloth and set over a pan or bowl.
- Place 32 ounces of nonfat or low-fat plain yogurt in colander.
- Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight. (Shorter draining produces moister cheese similar to sour cream; longer draining produces a thicker cheese.)
- Scrape the yogurt cheese from the filter or cloth and use in recipe.
