It's a Veggie! It's a Fruit! It's Full of Vit. C!

         Often thought of as a vegetable, red bell peppers are actually classified as a fruit, because they have seeds.
        Red bell peppers are an excellent source of Vit. C---one cup contains 117 mg---and they are low in sugar.
They also contain multiple antioxidant compounds---a single red bell pepper has 30 different antioxidants. They are one of the most nutrient-dense foods one can eat.
