Green Pepper Pesto ~ Library ~ Tomatoes

I've always associated "pesto" with greens.  I was intrigued when I found a recipe using green peppers as the base.  The recipe is from a library book I borrowed - Preserving the Harvest.

I got two lovely green bell peppers from the garden, and had basil, so I gave the new recipe a whirl.

I decided to make a pasta pesto using this pasta.

End results.  Who knew that green peppers would make a great pesto.  I'll have to make this and freeze some for winter.   I am still hoping I get 16 ripe bell peppers all at once to stuff and freeze as well.

Apparently, the library kept my inter-loan requests, but put them all on hold back in March.  Items starting coming in last week, but they sent them back.  I just had so much going on with the passing of the boys.  Daughter stopped and picked up what they had.  A few crochet books and a movie.  All of the canning and herb books had been sent back.  I have no idea what they were.

Finally seeing these turn red.

Freezing Corn

First, I do not like the new blogger at all.  Oh my golly.  I reverted back to the old, sent my feedback, and hope they get the picture.  

It's that time of year again for freezing corn off the cob.  I'll be back at it today.

We had a few beautiful weather days (days I call great camping weather).  My tomatoes and hot peppers don't like it, but it's been nice to have a break from the heat.
