1, 12OunceJar of Roasted Red Peppersliquid and everything
¼CupSugar
½TeaspoonCrushed Red Pepper Flakes
1TeaspoonSalt
For the Bruschetta:
½CupChevre Goat Cheese

Instructions
Add the roasted red peppers and liquid to a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Mix in the sugar, salt, and crushed red pepper. Reduce heat to low and simmer for ten minutes.
Let the jam cool completely in the saucepan. Once cooled, add to a food processor or blender and puree until smooth. Refrigerate for at least 45 minutes before using so the jam has time to thicken up.
Grill the cut side of the bread over medium heat on a grill or grill pan for five minutes. Spread about ¼ cup of goat cheese over each half of the bread. Top with a few tablespoons of jam and then serve.
