Sweet peppers, also known as bell peppers for their bell-like shape, are one of the world’s most popular vegetables. They are also one of the easiest to grow from the seed.
Versatile, tasty, and full of health, sweet peppers promote antioxidants. Nutritionally they are a good source of vitamin C, beta carotene, folic acid, magnesium and potassium.
Below is a plate with several green sweet peppers recently cooked by my wife. Here we go.

Popular in MY home, too, Omar. Bon Appetite
One of my favorites, too, stuffed with a mixture made of sweet Italian sausage. The gardens here are beginning to fade in the heat, but there are plenty of peppers left at the farmers’ market, and I picked up some yesterday for just this dish.
Richard and Linda:
Who said it was a large world? It is as small as a “pañuelo”, as we say in Spanish.
Who knew we all have a similar taste for good food? Thank you for commenting. You have become part of our family.
