I love banana peppers on everything. Salad, soups, sauces, meats, you name it. Pickling is the way to go. 

I have put my big canner away for the year but I did do pickles 

How about peppers stuffed with feta or stuffed peppers. 

1 pound hot ground Italian Sausage, roasted and chopped fine 1/2 cup Locatelli Romano cheese 1/2 cup bread crumbs Salt and pepper to taste 1 large egg Olive oil to saute 4 banana peppers (Hungarian hots or mild as preferred) 1 cup marinara sauce, heated for service Wedge dry ricotta cheese Mix sausage, cheese, bread crumbs, salt and pepper, and egg together in mixing bowl. Season to taste. Adjust mixture with additional cheese and bread crumbs if too dry or moist - medium moisture for stuffing desired. Make a radial slice around the top of the banana pepper leaving the top intact. Pull back top and remove seeds if so desired. Gently stuff mixture into peppers. Place olive oil in hot saute pan. Gently place peppers in the pan and fry each side until browned. Place marinara sauce in middle of plate. Arrange peppers on top of marinara and grate the dry ricotta cheese on top of the hot peppers. 

Wow! Nice recipe, Lourock1!!! 

I will have to look in my freezer that sounds very good I was wondering if anybody had ever made pepper soup I know I have stuffed them with cheese before and that's always very good these are caring a little bit of heat since it is so dry and hot thank you so much 

Okra is yummy 😋 

Pepper soup sounds good. I cut up a couple of jalapeños and havasu and sautéed with onion and green beans. I realize though you are trying to use up a good bit. If you make the soup, share how it goes. 

😋YUMMY!!!!
