Peel and Dice the onions.
Spread pieces out onto a baking sheet
Place into the freezer and allow to stay there for at least 2 hours
Remove from freezer and place in zip lock FREEZER bags. Squeeze out as much air as you can before sealing. Label the bag with sharpie marker.
Place back in the freezer and you can use as much as you need from the container for 6 months - 1 year.

Notes

PRO TIP: Put as many of the frozen pieces as you want in a large gallon size zip lock bag and just use the amount you need each time, reseal the bag and save it for later.
This recipe will work for ANY amount of onions you want to freeze.
The most important instruction is to spread the onions out so that they have enough space between them that they won't stick together.
Best uses for these peppers will be stir fry, baking, and casseroles.
