Bell Pepper
Exceptional nutritional value
Red bell pepper, raw.
Bell peppers are mild, sweet peppers eaten raw in salads or cooked in stir-fries and stews; these values are for ripe red ones. One medium pepper of about 120 g has around 30 kcal and supplies well over the full daily value of vitamin C, plus useful vitamin A, vitamin B6, folate and vitamin E. Green peppers are the same fruit picked unripe, with less sugar, less vitamin C and much less vitamin A.
