Nutrition:

• Bell pepper: bell peppers are one of the highest foods in vitamin C! They also have heart-healthy antioxidants, lots of vitamin A, and fiber.

• Tomato: tomatoes are rich in vitamin C and potassium! They contain an antioxidant called lycopene, which is linked to many benefits including a reduced risk of heart disease and certain cancers.

• Yellow onion: onions are a good source of vitamin C, folate, vitamin B6, and potassium. They're also full of antioxidants and sulfur-containing plant compounds (quercetin and thiosulfinates), which may lower blood pressure, protect the heart, inhibit the growth of harmful microorganisms, and prevent the formation of blood clots! Yellow onion contains up to 11 times more antioxidants than white onions.

• Carrots: carrots are a great source of vitamin K, potassium, fiber, antioxidants, and BETA-CAROTENE. Beta-carotene is an antioxidant that your body converts into vitamin A, and it's super beneficial for eye-health, vision, skin, and preventing chronic illnesses.
