About Half cup steamed capsicum
Half Cup Steamed Capsicum is a nutritious and versatile vegetable dish commonly enjoyed in global cuisines, especially Mediterranean, Asian, and Western cooking. Capsicum, also known as bell peppers, comes in a variety of colors including red, yellow, green, and orange, each providing a slightly different flavor profile. Steaming preserves its vibrant color, tender texture, and essential nutrients while reducing the need for added fats. Rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene, and antioxidants, steamed capsicum supports immune health and skin vitality. It is naturally low in calories, containing roughly 20-30 per half cup, and provides dietary fiber, fostering digestion and satiety. Capsicum is sodium-free and contains no cholesterol, making it a heart-healthy option. However, adding sauces or salt during preparation may alter its nutritional profile. This dish is an excellent choice for light, flavorful meals or as a side to complement other healthy ingredients.
