As for the bell peppers, we cleaned them and I cut them into strips. I put a handful in a sandwich baggie and close the flap. Then I place all the pepper filled sandwich baggies into a large gallon sized Ziploc baggie and freeze for later use. I use them in chili and sometimes spaghetti sauce. And instead of making stuffed peppers, I make a bell pepper casserole. I also will use them in stir-fry if I don't have a fresh one available.
I sure enjoy eating tomatoes straight from the garden...right now I am eating them with salt. Later I will start using Italian salad dressing part of the time. And have you ever taken your favorite veggies-- in my case it is tomatoes, cucumbers, cauliflower, onions, bell peppers--anyway, cut them in bite sized pieces. Use a big bowl that has a lid, and cover with Italian dressing....let soak over night preferably. They are so yummy and refreshing on a hot summer day.

That all looks sooooooo good!
You definitely have a green thumb. The salso looks delicious. I'd like to try your suggestion for veggies and Italian salad dressing. Sounds yummy.
Omigod! That's incredible. I was eating cherries and grapes from the supermarket today and they were all sour! Yuk. The tomatoes are woody with no taste. The "fresh" peaches from Georgia, had the flavor of Styrofoam!
I guess I should start a garden!
Looks my garden Rose!
I took some photos for my Nature Notes post later in the week.
I do the same with my bell peppers. I had 18 sandwich bags this past week.
I'm curious about the casserole. Sounds like a good idea.
Oh YUM!!! Your salsa looks great! Would you share your recipe? :)
I enjoyed seeing the peppers and tomatoes from your garden. The salsa looks yummy! You have a good way of using the produce all winter too. Nice series.
Hi Rose, there is nothing better than eating a home-grown tomato... I also put salt on mine--but love it with a plate of home-made green beans and red potatoes. YUMMMY!!!!
I like freezing green peppers also--and using them as needed during the year. We love peppers and onions in omelets.
Have a great day with Bright Eyes.
Hugs,

Chips and salsa sound so good right now! The fresh peppers and tomatoes look good by themselves!
Thanks for the recipe, Rose. Sounds very, very good!
You make me wish we had a garden this year. Jimmy knew with his travels he would not have the time this year.

Those are beautiful veggies...you must have a wonderful growing season this year to go along with your obvious hard work! I love the look of your salsa, so pretty in the jars makes me very hungry ☺! Have a great week!
YUMMY a thousand times over!
BEAUTIFUL! I tried some salsa this year and it didn't taste quite right. Do you cook yours? I just chopped all the ingredients and ate it raw. There is nothing better than a warm garden tomato fresh off the vine!
Yikes! I'll take a couple of all of it! hehehe It all looks sooooo good!
OH WOW.... this all looks absolutely scrumptious!!
Rose: The bounty of the garden is so neat.
