How to Make Peppers Onions And Mushrooms

  1. Clean and cut 1 large onion into 1/2-inch strips.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent (about 5-7 minutes).
  4. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking for 15 minutes, or until the onions are starting to turn golden brown.
  5. Increase heat to medium-high. Add 2 bell peppers (any color), cut into 1/2-inch strips, and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir well to combine with the onions.
  6. Cook until the peppers begin to soften (about 5 minutes).
  7. Add 1 pound cremini mushrooms, sliced, and stir to combine.
  8. Add 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 2 cloves garlic (minced), and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional). Stir well.
  9. Reduce heat to medium-low. Do not cover the skillet.
  10. Simmer until the mushrooms release their juices and are tender but still firm (about 10-15 minutes). Do not overcook!
  11. Remove from heat and stir.
  12. Let cool completely.
  13. Portion into freezer-safe bags, flattening each bag to save space.
  14. Place multiple bags in a larger freezer bag for extra protection.
  15. Freeze for up to 1 year.
