How to Make Rb's Copycat Progresso Pepper Salad

Heat 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil (evoo) in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning. Sauté for 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant.
Add one 16-ounce package of frozen mixed bell peppers and onions. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated (about 5-7 minutes).
Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir in 2 tablespoons of red wine vinegar.
Cook for 2 more minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Remove from heat.
Let the pepper salad cool completely. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 8 hours (or preferably overnight) to allow the flavors to fully develop.
