question? I am planning to make your Italian Fresh Green Salad, are the banana peppers spicy? If so, would the not-spicy ones work or is there a substitute for them?
Thanks,

The banana peppers we use are not spicy. They add a lot of flavor to your salad.
This is a beautiful salad and a crowd pleaser!
Banana peppers are pretty sour, not at all spicy.
