Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large red bell pepper – cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 large orange bell pepper – cut into 1-inch pieces

Instructions
- Chop the veggies and add them to a large bowl. Drizzle them with avocado oil and toss to coat.
- In a smaller bowl, mix the garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, and add the spice blend to the veggies. Toss them in the spices for even coverage.
