Cooked Peppers and Onions is a versatile dish often featured in Mediterranean, Mexican, and American cuisines. Made by sautéing sweet bell peppers—red, yellow, green—and onions, this vibrant mix can include olive oil, garlic, or spices for added flavor. Packed with essential nutrients, the peppers provide high levels of Vitamin C, antioxidants, and dietary fiber, while onions offer anti-inflammatory compounds and vitamins like B6. Together, they are low in calories and make a heart-healthy side or topping for meals such as fajitas, pasta, or grilled proteins. The olive oil used in cooking adds healthy fats but can increase calorie counts, so portion sizes matter. Avoid excessive salt or high-fat add-ins for a healthier option. Perfect for vegetarian or vegan diets, Cooked Peppers and Onions is not only nutritious but also rich in color and flavor, making it a popular and health-conscious choice worldwide.
