Bright and vibrant, red and yellow peppers are sweet varieties of bell peppers, widely used in cuisines worldwide. Originating from Central and South America, these colorful vegetables are prized for their crisp texture and mild, fruity flavor. Red peppers are fully ripened versions of green peppers, making them sweeter and richer in nutrients. Both red and yellow peppers are excellent sources of vitamins C and A, offering immune support and promoting healthy skin and vision. They also provide dietary fiber and antioxidants like beta-carotene, which help combat free radicals. Low in calories and naturally fat-free, these peppers are a healthy addition to salads, stir-fries, and roasted dishes. While their sweetness pairs beautifully in recipes, consuming them raw or lightly cooked ensures maximum nutrient retention. A versatile and nutritious choice, red and yellow peppers can bring both vibrant color and health benefits to your plate.
