Yep.

I actually cut mine up, freeze on a large round tray I have, then vacuum seal them in gallon bags. That way, they don’t freeze as one big lump, like they can if you just toss in a bag and freeze.

Pull out as many as I need, simply reseal(re vacuum) put back in freezer.

I also dehydrate for long term storage. Didn’t catch me paying $3.79 for one pepper, although this winter they did cost that much here too.

When you want a a peppers,onion and sausage sandwich you will do about anything.

Actually as I have already mentioned I do freeze peppers, but I guess we ate too many pepper and onions this winter.

I really have to put in a few more peppers this season.

BTW, I do the same with blueberries. I still have enough for at least two more blueberry pies. Blueberries will be coming in season here in South Jersey within a month (June 15th)

You’ve got it down to a science!
I’d never pay more than 99 cents for a pepper.
I thought that was kind of high, but I love them.
I will love the free ones in my garden!
I have a nice assortment of young plants in the greenhouse now, but need to get more and get the seeds I need.
We had a big garden on the farm when I was a kid and the folks still have one. This will be my first veggie garden here on my small farm. Obama put the hurt on me so bad, I’m growin’ my own food! Can’t wait until that guy is out of The White House. I’ll keep the garden though, even after he’s history.

Lots of gardens being planted. Just like when Carter was a lousy president.
