Baked green peppers are a flavorful and nutrient-packed dish commonly found in Mediterranean and American cuisines. Known for their vibrant color and satisfying texture, green peppers serve as a versatile base that can be stuffed with ingredients such as lean meats, grains, legumes, and herbs, or left unfilled for a simpler side. Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as fiber and antioxidants, they support immune function, eye health, and digestion. Baking enhances their natural sweetness while preserving their crunchy appeal. Low in calories and fat, they are a heart-healthy choice, though fillings with excessive cheese, processed meats, or oil may detract from their benefits. Ideal for vegetarians and those seeking lighter, nutrient-dense options, baked green peppers are a delicious way to enjoy wholesome, whole-food ingredients in a variety of meal settings.
