To prepare the crumb topping: Pour 1 1/2 tb olive oil into a nonstick skillet, add the split cloves garlic and place over medium-low heat. Slowly saute the garlic until golden. Remove the garlic from the pan and add the bread crumbs, stirring well. Saute until golden. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
Stem, seed, and finely chop bell peppers. Heat 2 ts oil in a large nonstick skillet. Add the bell peppers and saute 5 minutes. Add the roasted garlic broth and simmer 5 minutes.
Cook the ravioli according to package directions. Drain and add to the broth with the peas; cook 3 minutes, stirring gently. Serve in shallow soup bowls sprinkled with the crumb topping, minced herbs and cheese.
