Lol that's okay! I might just have to experiment and find out

I just thought of an easy one.

Cook a couple of chicken breast in a pan, I like to brown them first then let cook on low til done. (I cook everything for a long time)

Cut up an onion and a bell pepper or two and some fresh garlic.
Saute these three in that same pan. (the goodies left in the pan after you brown the chicken are good)
Throw/dump...2 cans of stewed tomatoes in. Add the chicken back and let all simmer for a little while.
While that is simmering boil some water for some noodles.
I prefer fettuccini noodles with this dish.

Serve the chicken and sauce over the noodles...
Enjoy.

Peppers are easy to freeze and maintain most of their goodness frozen.

Bell peppers are good in everything. Tomato sauces like Kiki's, fresh salads, as dip sticks, gumbos, soups, plain for an afternoon snack, etc.

Hot peppers are added on the side for me since I'm the only one who eats them. Roasted, in peas or meat gravies. All good. Roasted and stuffed are way too good.

My peppers are starting to fruit and they are HOT jalapenos. Steamed 2 with broccoli and I got the broccoli too. I didn't think they would "spread" their goodness steamed, but, oh, my. The first fruits are hot. Later in the year, they tone it down (or I get accustomed to it) and get sweeter. Since I burned my taste buds out, family never believes me when I say "I only added a little bit and can't taste it."

Kiki,
add some fresh basil to your recipe. Just pick the tops off and drop in to simmer. Really makes the tomatoes sing! I had a lot of volunteer basil come back and am adding it to my salads. Oh, my. I should have tried this earlier.

Need to expand my herbs. Hoping the rosemary and parsley reseed.

Cheers!

I actually just pulled some frozen jalapeños out of my freezer today to use for dinner.
I had totally forgot that I had them in there until @RUNuts mentioned freezing them above!
