Make some today and you will want one at every meal. Packing this for lunch? Make sure you carry it in an insulated lunchbox or storage container.
Health Benefits
Naturally, the primary ingredients in this stuffed capsicum dish are the capsicums themselves. And capsicums are the best source of capsaicin–that wondrous compound that makes food spicy. Capsaicin has a myriad of health benefits that make it worth including in your regular diet. It is a great anti-inflammatory for all kinds of ailments. Use it to bring down muscle swelling, alleviate skin pain, and even reduce the pain from Crohn’s disease. Capsaicin can also prevent cancer and improve cardiopulmonary health.
