long and pointy red peppers

[bluejeans]

I bought some of those long and pointy red peppers yesterday (do they have a name?) and not sure what to do with them - I thought maybe a pasta dish with chicken type thing? Please inspire me for tonight's dinner!

They are so sweet, I don't use them in cooking. I just chop them up and the dc eat them as they are.

Nice with some dips

I use them with chicken fajitas

Thanks - mmm! will see if DD will eat some!

I think you can stuff them with things - couscous, roasted courgettes, feta cheese, and bake?

Definitely yummy if stuffed and baked but try not to use ingredients which are too 'wet' as it leaks out.

did you get them in lidl? i got some too. asked the chap filling up the box of them what they were like..

'peppers' he said

grill them then add goats cheese at the end....simple but lovely!

Thanks for the replies I ended up putting one in an omelette and one in a caesar salad. They were good but think I will definitely try to actually cook something next time! I like buying them as they look a bit exotic!

Ruddy - got them in Morrisons - Lidl prob cheaper! We do have a Lidl but not really shopped there properly, probably because I have to drive past Morrisons to get to it. Your 'peppers' comment reminded me that every time I buy butternut squash the person on the checkout either asks me what they are or what I'm going to do with them!
