My neighbor Jack gave us a bunch of peppers and tomatoes he picked from his garden. I made sauce with the tomatoes but not sure what to do with these peppers. They look so pretty, but we’re not big pepper eaters, Maybe I’ll freeze them.
Are these all peppers - not some chilies in there? The green ones look like the mild peppers we get here which can be sliced fine and used in salads or stuffed with something such as minced meat and baked in the oven. But the red and orange ones don't have the same shape as the sweet red peppers I am used to and love so much in a salad. Red peppers are very expensive here.
@seacreature I'm not sure how hot or sweet the red/oranges peppers are. I guess I should taste them before I decide. I'm hoping they're more sweet than hot. (Although I love spicy food, it doesn't love me) At the grocery stores you can find yellow, orange and red peppers that are larg and bell shaped. And you're right, they're usually way more expensive than the dark green peppers.
we do like peppers and usually will slice these up and add to tortilla wraps. Grill up some chicken breast, slice and saute the peppers with some onions. Lay that in a wrap, sprinkle with cheddar cheese, fold up and voila a quick dinner.
