Pardon the ignorance of a south Texas guy, but what is "trinity"? Thanks, Larry

Trinity = Green bell peppers, Onions and celery.

Everything sounds yummy..............except for the mice in the tomatoes.   

Typos can be pretty funny sometimes.

SS, thanks for educating me on that. I can see now why it's given a collective name. Lots of recipes I use call for all three of the components. Thanks again. Larry

I add garlic to the mix because garlic goes in everything I cook as well. We make 5 gallon portions of the mix and store it in 1 gallon ziplocks so as we are saute'ing, we just grab a handfull and throw it in the pan, along with oilve oil usually. I should have mentioned that in the recipe about but anyhow, now ya know! Bon Apetite!

This past fall I bought one of those Vidalia chop wizards that Donald demonstrated and chopped onions, peppers, celery, and zuchinni.  Then bagged and laid the bags flat in the freezer.  All winter I've been able to grab those bags and throw a handful into the pan to saute.  Very convenient.  I now know I probably can't grow too many of any of these kinds of veggies (other than celery, which I don't grow and have to buy).  Not sure if it would work with okra.  I haven't been too sucessful in growing it so what I stored I dehydrated.  I made southernstyle's quickie jambalya the other day and it was nice to have the okra to throw into the mix.

Thanks for the idea sherry! Diced zuc, or eggplant would rock in a sauce piquante! I think the idea of trinity could be very useful with a variety of veggies. It kinda regional i think but anything goes, Its just whatever ya like! Really my pepper steak is just Geeyahds cause the steaks is grilled on the flatop and placed ontop of the trinity mix...  So many words for the same thing..

If I was gonna do okra in the jamb. Id put it in last just cause it will get real sticky! I recon jambalaya is more of the spanish influence with the maters and all.. Kinda like pie-A-ya,(dont remember the spanish spelling).
