Roasted garlic pepper white wine creamy pasta

I love summer for all the great fresh vegetables that my garden provides me with.  This year our peas have done particularly well, I was looking to create a dish that utilized my over ripe peas. With a little inspiration from other moms on a Facebook group this dish was created. I love the how creamy it is, it almost reminds me of a dairy free alfredo sauce.

1 yellow pepper halved
1 White onion cut in half
9 cloves of garlic
Olive oil
Coarse ground black pepper

Preheat oven to 400F
Pour a good dollop of olive oil in a glass pan and place vegetables in in. Drizzle more olive oil over top and sprinkle with pepper.
