This recipe is a modification from one I found that required you to roast your own peppers. Instead, I use 3 jars of store-bought roasted red bell peppers (which is more than the original recipe required, adding more pepper flavor to the sauce). I also add cayenne pepper to give an extra kick to the sauce (you can add more if you like, or remove it altogether if you don't do well with spice). This sauce tastes delicious with everything - you can serve it over cheese tortellini, whole wheat pasta, or just a grilled chicken breast. It's so versatile!!
