Answer 1

You can also freeze or dry then for use in recipes throughout the year.

Answer 2

Slice them into strips and add them to a stirfry. Deeelicious, and colorful. Or else get the insides cleaned out and stuff them with a meatloaf mixture blended with a little cooked rice. keep the bit you cut off the top for a lid that you can put back on during cooking. Go to your favorite search engine and type in cooked green peppers or something like that, and my bet is you will pull up a ton of interesting preparation and cooking ideas.

Hi!
There is always the old stand-by stuffed green peppers.
You can also cook them with onions and italian sausages and serve in a hoggie roll.
Also, green peppers are a staple for any southern dishes like gumbo.
Sliced and covered with monteray jack cheese and microwaved till tender makes an easy appetizer.
They're really good in salads too.
