thanks CC, I'm going to have to Google what a red bell pepper is...i think we may call it a red capsicum here  ???

I believe that you are right and you call them red capsicums.

Thanks Cornish Cream.  Sounds very interesting.  Wonder if you could add the pine nuts and mix on reverse  :-: to avoid breaking them up?

Like the idea of goji berries in there too.

The oil maybe something to make in bulk and keep in the fridge?  Sounds good.  :-* :-* :-* :-*
