Simple Roasted Banana Peppers {in the savory kitchen}

sometimes
my garden overproduces
at 
the most opportune time

recently guests came up to the ranch for a visit
at an hour
which isn't quite lunch
while being
too early for dinner

the time of day where one begins to feel peckish

what to do?
what to do?

i went a bit spanish
using 
the abundance of banana peppers
to 
create a delicious and simple
addition to afternoon tapas
roasted banana peppers

as many banana peppers and other fresh (smallish) peppers you can gather
olive oil
sea salt
sherry vinegar

preheat oven to 400F.  place peppers in large shallow pan.  lightly coat in olive oil.  roast until the peppers begin to blister and soften. remove from oven and immediately splash with sherry vinegar. sprinkle with sea salt.
serve warm or room temperature
simple
delicious
