Spaghetti with Bell Peppers
Healthy, because
Even smarter
Nutritional values
Yellow, red, orange: the peppers contain many colourings, the carotenoids. They act as antioxidants in the body and fend off free radicals. And the dietary fibres in the noodles keep the intestines going and keep you full for a long time.
If you are not a fan of goat's cream cheese, add some crumbled ricotta or diced mozzarella to the pasta.

Preparation steps
Cut bell peppers into quarters, remove seeds, rinse and place skin-side up on a baking sheet.
Roast under the preheated oven broiler until the skin is black and blistered. Place bell peppers in a bowl and cover with a damp dish towel for about 10 minutes.
While the bell peppers steam, peel the onions and cut into thin strips. Peel the garlic and chop finely.
Remove the skins from the bell peppers and cut into thin strips.
Cook the pasta in plenty of boiling salted water according to package instructions until al dente.
While the pasta is cooking, heat oil in a pan and sauté onions and garlic until translucent, 3-4 minutes.
Add bell peppers and cook for 4-5 more minutes over low heat.
Drain the pasta. Rinse oregano, shake dry and pluck leaves. Mix pasta with vegetables and oregano and season with salt and pepper. Dollop fresh goat cheese on the pasta and serve immediately.
