2 cloves garlic, minced
1/3 cup extra vergin olive oil

Wash and dry bell peppers. Bake them in preheated oven 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Turn them carefully 4 times until easily pierced with a fork.

Rub them one by one with a towel to remove the skin. Cut each pepper in half and remove the seed and ribs. Cut the peppers into 1 1/4 inch strips and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Soak the bread in the vinegar and squeeze it to remove excess vinegar. In a bowl, combine the bread, olive paste and garlic until a
thick cream forms. Mix in 2 tablespoons of the oil and spread the mixture on the pepper strips and roll them up.

Arrange the rolls on a serving dish and drizzle the remaining oil over them, Sprinkle with the parsley.
