    My DH doesn't like the crunch that onions or green peppers add to a dish so long ago I started using onion powder and to still have the flavor of green pepper I puree it and add as part of the liquids in the recipe.

    Just a note of caution.

    There are some of us with food sensitivity/intolerance and allergies. I was at an event today with a lady who is deathly allergic to strawberries. There was fruit punch, but no one knew if it had strawberries in it. She drank water.

    A friend's DD has Crones and Colitis. Onions, garlic, leeks etc will put her in the hospital.

    The nightshade family of plants can be highly allergic for some (Tomatoes, peppers, potatoes). Picking them out of the pot is not good enough.

    I fully understand that many are either picky eaters or fussy about the texture of their food, but for some of us a hidden ingredient is dangerous, even deadly.

    I may not get sick on the spot if I have dairy or wheat, but I will suffer for at least 2 weeks, miss work and generally be miserable.

    I'm with you Tothill...even though some might think we are just "picky" eaters, many food sensitivities can cause a lot of trouble for some of us!

    My husband truly dislikes onions and garlic. I sort of slide a few teaspoons or shakes of either powdered one into what I am cooking and he never notices. I also sometimes puree veggies to put in recipes for those that don't like them. I came from a big family and we ate what was put in front of us or we would starve. Said to say that never happened and I have the figure to prove it. Ha! Happy Cooking!
