Nutritional values

Colorful vegetables contain a lot of soluble fiber, which promotes healthy digestion. They contribute to a low cholesterol blood level, help reduce fat levels, and normalize sugar metabolism. The peppers cover our daily requirement of vitamin C and antioxidants, which protects our cells from free radicals.

You can easily prepare this dish the morning or day before you plan to serve it, store it in the fridge, and then just pop it in the oven when you're ready to eat.
