Tri Color Sweet And Tangy Peppers Food

SPICY SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat Oven 400 degrees. Lay sausages on top of PAM sprayed racks - that are covering tin foiled pans - to get crisp and let the fat drip into pan - roughly 30 mins. - give or take type of oven (mine is electric)
• 2. Slice peppers and get all seeds out. And slice peppers thinly.
• 3. Slice white onions thinly
• 4. Throw onions and peppers in well oiled pan with minced garlic and Badia Italian seasoning and saute til translucent and caramelized. (turn off heat and cover to keep warm)
• 5. When sausages are done - slice about 6 of the sausages and throw back in onion pan and cover with large can of Rotel tomatoes and chilis and set on low heat so that sausage slices, peppers, onions and tomatoes blend. Stir around a few times. Cook for 5-6 mins or until all above ingredients are well blended together and heated through together. Plate it out and sprinkle some Parmesan cheese over top. ***Also can place one of the whole sausages & peppers/onions in hoagie roll with a tiny bit of spicy mustard - YUMMM!

SWEET & SPICY THAI STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Slice the green peppers into 1/2" wide long strips.
• Dice all other peppers down to about 1/2" square.

• Dice red onion or shallots smaller than the coloured peppers.
• Run the lo-mein noodles under cold water in a collander for about 5 minutes to loosen.
• In one stir-fry pan or wok add all peppers and snow peas (feel free to add any of your other favourite veggies to this wok as well).
• Add a bit of oil, about a tablespoon of soya sauce, and about 1/2 to 3/4 of the jar of Thai Sauce.
• Stirfry at medium heat until the sauce has thickened slightly and the vegetables are well cooked.
• In a second stir fry pan or wok add bean sprouts and lo-mein (can be substituted with a nice tri-color rotini pasta).
• Add a bit of oil, soya sauce, and just enough plum sauce to glaze the noodles and sprouts.

TRI-COLOUR SWEET PEPPER SOUP

Steps:

• NOTE: Directions are for the original Sweet Pepper Soup. Sometimes, however, I like to "mix things up". For my second version, I reduce the chicken broth to 4 cups, add 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes (I use Del Monte Petite Diced Tomatoes), 1-2 teaspoons of Dijon Mustard, and 1 cup of sour cream. It is a thicker, heartier soup that is equally enjoyable, just different.
• Melt one tablespoon of the butter over medium heat in a large Dutch Oven.
• Sweat the onions for 5 minutes until translucent and slightly yellow. I keep them covered during this process. If necessary, add additional tablespoon of butter so the onions do not burn.
• Add the three different coloured peppers, stirring well, to mix the soft onions and butter with the peppers. Set timer for 15 minutes; every 5 minutes, stir the peppers and onions and "taste test" the peppers to YOUR degree of doneness. We really enjoy a very soft pepper so it takes the full 15 minutes to achieve that texture.
• Add the six cups of chicken broth and the teaspoon of paprika and stir well, until combined. ( if using the can of diced tomatoes, use FOUR cups of chicken broth and the can of diced tomatoes).
• Bring the soup to a boil, reduce down to a simmer and cover. Every 5 minutes, gently stir the soup. Simmer for 30 minutes.
• If you choose to make this a richer soup, use an immersion stick blender to blend up the soup until it is coloured flecks of the peppers. Add the sour cream and Dijon mustard, stir well until heated. DO NOT BOIL!
• Serve immediately.
