About Onions and green peppers

Onions and green peppers are versatile vegetables often paired together in a variety of cuisines, from stir-fries and fajitas to pasta dishes and omelets. Onions, with their savory and slightly sweet flavor, are rich in antioxidants like quercetin and contain vitamins C and B6, supporting immunity and overall health. Green peppers, boasting a mild and crisp taste, are an excellent source of vitamin C, vitamin A, fiber, and folate, contributing to healthy skin, vision, and digestion. Low in calories and naturally fat-free, this vibrant duo enhances flavor without compromising nutrition. Common in Mediterranean, Mexican, and Asian cooking, onions and green peppers add color, crunch, and a nutritional boost to meals. Some preparation methods, like frying, can add unwanted fats or calories, but roasting, grilling, or sautéing with minimal oil keeps them healthier while preserving their rich, flavorful essence.
