Inspiration needed - mushrooms and peppers

I've been to the market today and bought LOADS of veg and have all sorts of pots on the go ready for starting back on track next week when the schools (and me) return to normality.

I have lots of mushrooms and sweet peppers left over - any ideas, I already have HUGE piles of pasta sauce :)

Was thinking of maybe a crust less quiche but not sure where to start!!!

Have a fairly full spice/herb rack and other store cupboard essentials.

Any ideas gratefully appreciated - thanks
 
There's loads of mushroom recipes here hun, lots of which are SW-friendly or easily adaptable :)

Mushroom Recipes

Mushrooms and peppers make a good base for a Spanish omelette, or even just a normal omelette. They're also good for bulking out a lot of meals...curry, bolognese, chilli etc. They're also nice in soups or stews. Lots of things to do with them :) xx
