    Wow, thought it was just me who didnt like the green peppers! I do try to avoid buying them but in the unfortunate event i'm stuck some I put them in curry. Quite nice left chunky because the spices infuse them.
  • You could also look for cajun recipes as green peppers are often used there.

    Not good at searching so sorry if this has already been asked.

    I had some peppers that were on the turn so while the oven was on I cut them up roughly together with an onion and 5 cloves of garlic and a couple of cherry tomatoes. (Hate any food waste). Now its in the fridge awaiting inspiration. Any ideas as to what I can do with this tub of veg? No adding of oil or cream please as I am on the slimming world plan.

    Thanks in advance x

    What about blitzing it to a sauce for pasta. Or have it as ratatouille with rice. On a baked potato.

    I often chop up roasted veg and stir through rice, pasta or couscous - all Free on Green or EE (as long as veg roasted in Frylight!). Makes a good cheap lunch.

    I also just like eating it straight out of the tub.

    Ive merged this with our peppers thread. Of course you can use frylight to fry/caramelise them with a drop of sweetener

    Bought a bag of 6 mixed peppers (red/green/orange) in Tesco yesterday for 10p. Can I chop and freeze? Any other ideas for them - maybe roast and store??
