About Onions and bell peppers

Onions and bell peppers are versatile vegetables that add vibrant color and bold flavor to countless dishes around the world. Onions, originating from Central Asia, are packed with antioxidants and compounds like quercetin that support immune function and heart health. Bell peppers, native to South and Central America, are low in calories and rich in vitamins C and A, essential for boosting immunity and maintaining healthy skin and vision. Together, they provide fiber for digestion and are commonly used in cuisines such as Southwestern, Mediterranean, and Asian cooking. Whether sautéed, grilled, or roasted, they are a nutrient-dense option that enhances meals with their natural sweetness and satisfying crunch. Onions can be higher in natural sugars, so moderation may be needed for those managing blood sugar levels. Bell peppers are an excellent choice for nearly any dietary plan, making them a staple in health-conscious kitchens worldwide.
