Yesterday I walked the entire perimeter of the development, cool sunny day
And home again noticed a few bell peppers ready to pick. Gary's been offering me them for ages and I haven't accepted because I don't like bell peppers. Except in a Trenton pepper, onion meatball sub, best in the world.
But since these would go to waste, I wondered if I should pick and find a way to cook them I'd like.
There followed the onion, pepper crustless quiche
Eggs, milk, flour, blue cheese and shredded sharp cheddar, beaten together, poured over the peppers and onions, 350°f 35 minutes. Note to self: do this again.
Happy day everyone, cook what you like to eat, or get a Trenton sub, whichever is more practical.
I don't care for raw bell peppers but I like them cooked. We're having a few gorgeous days here until next week when we're supposed to have record breaking heat. Oh joy.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of green bell peppers, but I don't mind yellow, orange and red ones. They are tastiest when sauteed, I find. With onions, like you have done.
ReplyDeleteNever even heard of a Trenton sub. I guess they haven't made their way down south yet.
ReplyDeleteBut that does look like a good quiche.
Lovely blue-sky day there!
The sandwich in question is the one made by a deli in Trenton, near the broadcast hq where I worked. It's just called a pepper onion meatball sandwich, but I canonized it as a Trenton sub!
ReplyDeleteI like peppers, onion and garlic sauteed. It's good mixed with farro. You live in a lovely place.
ReplyDeleteLove quiche. It's usually a Monday meal when I don't feel like cooking. I often put in peppers as we have a glut of them this year. A favourite at my house is peppers stuffed with lean ground beef, grated potatoes, grated sharp cheddar cheese, grated carrot, onion and what ever spice you fancy.
ReplyDeleteI love green peppers and am pleased you found a way to make yours palatable. Browning off the onions first was the best part of all, but I'm sure you realized that.
ReplyDeleteYes, the onions were caramelized, the peppers too.
ReplyDeleteI grew peppers this year and though small were delicious! I’d give them a try again.
ReplyDeleteSounds yummy. I used to like bell peppers more than I do now, but I still enjoy them on pizza.
ReplyDeleteYum - that quiche looks so good! I happen to love peppers both raw and cooked. Sadly our little balcony garden peppers didn't produce much this year.
