I love capsicums, from being stir-fried, to salads, to become part of -yong tau foo (stuffed with fish paste), it just makes a great colourful dish, not boring, makes my children happy to see it. Comes in green, red, orange and yellow, I normal buy 1 in each colour, mix it all up!! Interesting!! Children normally do not like the taste of it, so before serving to them, I cut them up in chopped size, with a clean pair of scissors, that'll do it!
Here, I'm sharing some of the benefits from eating capsicum..
:) Beneficial to the mucous membranes, eyes and skin
:) Helps wards off infection (Children's immune system is the most important!)
:) Has antioxidant properties that neutralize the free radicals responsible for damaging tissue and cells
:) Good for treating colds and fevers (children need this!)
:) Stimulates stomach secretions and improves digestion
:) Has a laxative effect
Look out for some recipes using capsicum under My quick recipes label.
