The bell pepper comes in various colors or varieties. Some bell peppers will start off green and change color as they mature on the vine to red, yellow, purple or even white.

What does the color have to do with flavor? Green bell peppers have a slightly bitter taste and the yellow are the sweetest. We suggest cooking with the green peppers to add flavor and fiber to soups and casseroles. Use the yellow peppers in salads to add a sweet crunchy component. The red peppers are great roasted or grilled with salt and parmesan cheese.
