I am SO tickled right now!!!! I don't know how I didn't know this, BUT, you can freeze diced bell peppers, without blanching them first. You can also freeze caramelized onions and roasted garlic.
This makes my life SO much easier.
Meatloaf is going to happen more often in my world now.

You can also freeze whole tomatoes. An heirloom variety called Stupice freezes well. Just wash, cut out the stem area and nip off the blossom end if it is large. Put them in quart freezer bags, suck out extra air. When needed run some warm water over the tomatoe, the skin just pops off and use to make soup, marinara sauce, thaw completely to use in any dish that calls for tomatoes.

Thanks!

We chop peppers and freeze in one cup amounts. Great for soups,...

We do blanch and peal tomatoes, chopped in 2 cup amounts.

I have frozen tomatoes whole. The peal will fall off when defrozen. It can be bitter. But the tomato is fine.

Blueberries should NOT be washed before freezing.

We cut strawberries and add a bit of sugar to address freezer burn,...

Blanch and cut corn from the cob, before freezing.

We can dilly beans, and strawberry jam, and sometimes apple sauce.

Every couple of years i process a few quince, and freeze in very small amounts, for use on my toast. Makes me very happy.

(Quince was THE fruit in the early 1800s.)
