Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400F. Bring a large pot of at least 3 cups of water to a boil.

Cut peppers into quarters, removing core and seeds. Place on a large baking dish and toss in olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Spread them on the baking sheet, cut side down, and roast in the oven for 15-20 mins.

Crumble goat cheese overtop and then gently toss once more. Serve
