Capsicum

Red, green, orange, yellow…capsicum is offered in various colors. The red, yellow and orange ones are sweeter than the green capsicums but can all be eaten raw or cooked. I often use them as snacks for the children but also often end up having some “left over”. I use them chopped in salads but also sliced in stir fries together with finely sliced red onion (or white but white onion is slightly stronger). They are excellent stir fired together with selleri, snow peas, a bit of finely sliced garlic. Add them in quiches or a creme cheese dip. Stuff them with minced beef, garlic and onion topped with a cheese and bake them in the oven. Capsicums are delicious and very versatile.
