Zucchini and bell peppers are vibrant, nutrient-dense vegetables popular in global cuisines. Zucchini, a summer squash, originated in the Americas and is a staple in Mediterranean dishes. Bell peppers, native to Central and South America, are widely used in Asian, European, and Latin cuisines. Zucchini is low in calories, rich in vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants, and supports heart health and digestion. Bell peppers provide a potent dose of vitamins A and C, fiber, and carotenoids, promoting immune support and eye health. Both are naturally low in fat and high in hydration, aiding overall wellness. However, frying or adding heavy sauces can diminish their health benefits. Versatile and flavorful, they’re ideal for grilling, roasting, and incorporating into salads, stir fries, or pasta dishes, making them a delicious way to boost your nutrient intake.
