Actually a fruit and native to Mexico it has spread the world over it's flavor and goodness. they are very high in vitamin c and a good source of b vitamins. The red variety is sweeter and much more potent in vitamin c than the greens. They also add a healthy amount of the antioxidant lycopene. But enough of the stuff that's good for you. They taste good and add so much to literally all ethnic foods today.

I had a severe case of pancreatitis. Lasted near 5 months. Once I was home and able to start eating peppers were on my food choice list. Also, tomato soup and yams.
Any natural fruits and veges that are red or orange in color.
Had to quit smoking to get over the hump and heal.
Pancreatitis killed my Dad so I knew the dangers.
Thanks for asking.

I think so. Bell pepper and sometimes mixed with chile pepper.

Try smoked paprika on popcorn.

I think paprika is a mix of peppers.
Crushed red peppers are good for us too.
I sprinkle it in my tomato soup. Gives it a spicy kick.

I'm kind of neutral on them. I like the red ones best but overall I find the flavour of raw peppers quite strong. I like roasted red peppers and sometimes a bit of red or orange peppers in a stir fry or a salad.

I like the red, orange, and yellow better than the green too. Not as strong. Green peppers take over the entire dish.

Green peppers are unripe, and I am not really a fan of unripe things. If you leave the green pepper on the bush it will ripen into a red, orange or yellow one.
