Make these peppers with dill instead of the thyme.

Bell peppers have lots of beautiful color, sweet flavor and vitamin C. They also contain a good amount of vitamin A and some minerals.

I won't make this again. Or maybe I will, just without the lemon. The lemon juice makes this recipe very bitter, or sour.
