Peppers 101
Peppers of all kinds are high in nutrients for our bodies. I have always liked peppers and buy them often. One complaint that I hear often is that people just don't know how to fix them in meals. Often times they would buy one and only eat part making it so they ended up throwing the rest away, so here is a way to buy a few and use every last drop.
I bought 3 green peppers and 3 red peppers and this is what I fixed for 4 days:
Salsa: 1/2 green pepper, 1/2 red pepper, tomatoes, onion, cilantro, limes,jalepenos. Salsa will last in the fridge for a week
Fajitas: 1 green pepper,1 red pepper, 1 onion, shredded chicken with tortillas. top with your homemade salsa and cheese
Sloppy Joes: ground beef, diced green and red peppers, onions, manwich sauce, 1/4 cup bbq sauce
Omlets: eggs, diced green and red peppers, onions, cheese, ham, top with salsa
Taco Soup: Beans, chicken broth, canned corn, diced green and red peppers, onions, diced tomatoes, shredded chicken, green chilis, taco seasoning
There are many more recipes and things you can do with peppers. I use to throw half of the peppers away after using them for one meal but now I have found many ways to fix them. I will post my all time favorite thing to make with peppers when I get my camera working but for now enjoy peppers.
