Green Peppers

Mrs. c. L. T. of Tabor, Ia, has
asked for ways of using surplus
green peppers, that are still in her
garden. Green peppers combine well
with many things and are excellent
both raw and cooked. They may
also be canned for winter usage by
the cold pack method.
Uses for Raw Peppers.
As a garnish for meat or fish
dishes. In salads, chopped in strips,
or in rings, or the pepper pod may
be used as a cup to hold the salad
proper. A pretty salad consists OF
two or three rings of green peppers
on a lettuce bed, each ring filled
with a mixture of cottage cheese
and salad dressing. If the cheese
is smoothed off, the rings will give
the appearance of slices of stuffed
pepper.
= Peppers in Cooked Dishes.
Peppers may be added to soups,
stews, and vegetable and meat
dishes in general. Peppers may be
used instead of onions with steak.
Slice and fry as usual.
Stuffed Peppers.
Parboil the peppers FIVE minutes,
drain and fill with any stutfing. 10

bread crumbs, rice or other cereal
with one part chopped meat or fish.
