I love bell peppers! I like stuffed peppers - just like everyone else - but I love them fried with onions and sausage in a bit of olive oil; seasoned with garlic, parsley, salt and pepper.

They are also good in salads of all kinds (veggie, pasta, bean, etc.) - whether you use a vinaigrette dressing or a mayo-type dressing. I also used them on my panini (grilled sandwiches and hoagie-type sandwiches. Stuff with a bread/cheese/butter stuffing for a different type of stuffed pepper. Stir fry dishes look so nice with the different color peppers also.

You can also char them to blister the skin; place in a plastic bag to "sweat" and peel off the charred part and enjoy roasted pepper sandwiches.

Enjoy them sliced with sliced onion and a nice vinaigrette dressing and serve as a sandwich stuffer with sliced tomatoes.

Tuna and rice salad look nice served in pepper halves also. Skillet fried pepper strips, asparagus and mushrooms for a nice side. Bake or skillet fry with assorted veggies - potatoes, onions, mushrooms, carrots, celery, zucchini, broccoli and cauliflower, etc.
