Red Bell Peppers
If you're adding bell peppers to your menu, reach for the red. Why red? Red peppers are fully ripened green peppers. Their rich red color comes with twice the vitamin C and 10 times the vitamin A of the immature green peppers on the same plant! In fact, one small red bell pepper contains three times the recommended daily allowance of vitamin C. Red bell peppers also contain the carotenoid lycopene, which lowers the risk of prostate and cervical cancer and are an excellent source of beta-carotene ... and that is just the beginning!
