Re: Groceries
The bell pepper alone would likely cost more then 2.35...lol
But we have no cheap source of produce, the local markets all charge a price premium over the grocery stores.

Re: Groceries
Around this time of year in 1975 I bought a pepper in Oaxaca that when I sliced into it the vapour that came off immediately raised blisters on my lips and eyelids, you would have dropped like a rock. A piece about 3/8 - 1/2" square would flavour a pan of food.
Edit: I assumed from your post that you don't like peppers, but how can that be when you like Mexican food?
And that's how I stopped biting my nails. :-)

Bell peppers taste fine, they just cause stomach discomfort....

Re: Groceries
Or, just the roasted garlic by itself on a sandwich, top with lettuce
On onions, any which way as Bristol pointed out, boiled onions, even dried onions, or frizzy shredded deep fried onions (not battered)
Curry onions by themselves or with any other veg thrown in.... potatoes, zucchini etc

Re: Groceries
After our trip to the fruit stand my neighbour dug up a double handfull of little new potatoes for me so I'm making potato salad right now, using the small red sweet pepper, one of the hot little yellow ones, and lots of chopped green onions (also boiled eggs, garlic, etc etc). I'll coat the big pepper with olive oil and cook it on the bbq then split it and use half as a boat to hold the potato salad.
