After a week of working hard, I was faced with a pile of peppers! I am shocked at the amount of banana peppers that come off of the plants, which are not that big! And they grow so fast!
Saturday I turned this:
Into This:
And five minutes later my husband brought in more.
My brother sent me a really tasty-looking recipe to use those: Sausage Stuffed Banana Peppers
I’ll be trying this tomorrow.
Next I have to tackle the yellow squash. I already fried some in cornmeal (delicious) and I want to make a casserole. Anyone have anymore ideas for yellow summer squash? It’s coming in fast!

Wow! That’s a lot of peppers. The recipe looks like cabbage rolls using peppers. Enjoy. I love squash in a curry or stir fry. Anything you would use zucchini in you can use yellow squash.

You should see the plants! They’re just these skinny little things with ginormous peppers hanging off of them, and they keep coming. Squash in a curry sounds good!

Banana peppers are pretty mild, so they can be used to substitute for cabbage rolls and I’m even going to substitute them for chili rellenos and add the chlils into the sauce for the flavor.

In order to get the banana pepper rings with the heat, I had to add jalapenos to the jar. Turned out very tasty!

Your banana peppers look amazing. We use them a lot with mushrooms, tomatoes, courgettes and eggplant to make Mediterranean roast vegetables. That looks like a great selection of books you have to read too.

Sausage stuffed banana peppers is intriguing me. I mentioned to my husband and his first response was where can we get whole banana peppers. I hadn’t thought about the fact that I’ve only seen banana peppers sliced and in a jar – which only intrigues me more about this recipe 😊

If you haven’t tried it already, you should find a good ratatouille recipe on line. It usually has summer squash with other squash and ingredients. Despite the fact that I’m not a banana peppers fan, that recipe your son sent looks delicious. I hope you have a great week. Thanks for stopping by my blog.

I like summer squash just stir fried as a side dish or in soups, breads or muffins. You could also spiralize it to make noodles, at least we do that with zucchini.

I want to grow squash, but it’ll have to be next season. Those banana peppers look great. I’ve never eaten one and I’m wondering if they’re hot. I love spicy. For the yellow squash I’d just sauté them in butter with fresh minced garlic, pepper, and maybe squeeze a little lemon juice over it. I do that with zucchini sometimes and it turns out great.

The banana peppers are very mild so when I pickled them I added in some jalapeños for some heat.

They are really mild so they can substitute for cabbage rolls or stuffed peppers. The jarred pepper rings that have heat in them have had that added. I added jalapeno to mine.
