]]> If you struggle with IBS symptoms, it important to take your diet into consideration and be more careful with what you eat. There are many foods out there, especially processed foods, that we may not even realize are inflammatory or increase IBS symptoms. That’s why we have compiled a short list of foods to help you avoid uncomfortable IBS symptoms.

Salmon

Foods such as fatty fish are high in omega three fatty acids that are known to prevent inflammation in the gut and aid in digestion that will help prevent or mitigate symptoms of IBS such as bloating. At least 2-4 ounces of fatty fish such as salmons or sardines, may be just what you need to mitigate these uncomfortable symptoms.

Bell Peppers

Bell peppers are a good option for veggies as they have a high water content that will not irritate the stomach by causing inflammation or bloating. In addition, peppers are packed with fiber that will help improve digestive health, keeping you regular and avoiding discomfort. They are also high in vitamin c and antioxidants that prevent inflammation, and boost your immunity, thus promoting your overall gut health.

Lean Meats

Lean meats are also essential if you struggle with IBS symptoms as they are less fatty, and also a great source of protein, iron, and zinc. Avoid processed meats that can have all kinds of additives that can irritate the stomach and cause more discomfort. Recipes with lean meat, and not high saturated fats are an excellent , non-irritating option.

]]> When it comes to vibrant and nutritious vegetables, bell peppers take center stage. These colorful beauties are not only a delightful addition to your plate but also offer a plethora of health benefits. From boosting your immune system to promoting healthy skin, bell peppers are nature’s gift to our well-being.

Immune System Booster

Bell peppers, especially the red variety, are rich in vitamin C, which is known to strengthen the immune system. This essential nutrient helps your body fight off infections and common colds, keeping you healthy and energized.

Heart Health Promoter

Bell peppers are heart-friendly due to their combination of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. The potassium content helps regulate blood pressure, while the fiber and vitamin C contribute to reducing the risk of heart disease.

Eye Health Support

With their high content of vitamin A and carotenoids like lutein and zeaxanthin, bell peppers are excellent for maintaining good vision and promoting eye health. These nutrients help protect against age-related macular degeneration and reduce the risk of cataracts.

Weight Management Aid

If you’re watching your waistline, bell peppers can be your best friend. They are low in calories and packed with fiber, making them a filling and satisfying addition to your meals. The fiber content helps promote satiety, control cravings, and support healthy digestion.

Skin-Nourishing Properties

Did you know that bell peppers can help enhance your skin’s radiance and vitality? Their high vitamin C content boosts collagen production, promoting skin elasticity and preventing signs of aging. Additionally, the antioxidants in bell peppers help protect your skin from damage caused by environmental factors.

]]> Cutting bell peppers always turns out to be more complicated and messier than it should be. But it doesn’t have to be that way. There is a super easy way to cut bell peppers without having to worry about seeds flying everywhere.

TikTok user @theloriconway recently uploaded a video in which they showcased the hack that makes cutting bell peppers a breeze.

You start by cutting the stem and then placing the bell pepper stem-side down on the cutting board. From there, make cuts alongside the grooves of the bell pepper and just pull them apart. You should end up with clean bell pepper pieces while the part with the seeds remains untouched. 

“no other way to cut a pepper!!” wrote @theloriconway in the caption of the video.

@theloriconway’s clip quickly gained a lot of attention on TikTok, with most users praising the hack. There were some who pointed out that the hack isn’t something new, while others questioned it because it “wastes” some good parts of the pepper. But there is a solution for that as well.

“Did this yesterday, and it made it so much easier. Anyone complaining about the waste, it’s easy to cut the rest to make it perfect,” @noelani_willow commented.

Not only are they packed with essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber that our bodies need to function correctly, but they can also help reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Finally, they can improve digestion, boost immunity, and promote healthy skin. These are three of the healthiest vegetables you can eat.

Broccoli

We know broccoli as the “tree-looking veggie”, but there’s so much more to it. A cruciferous vegetable that is rich in vitamins C, K, and A, it’s also high in fiber and contains a compound called sulforaphane, which has anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties.

Spinach

In addition to being the primary food of the beloved cartoon Popeye the Sailorman, spinach is a leafy green vegetable that is an excellent source of vitamins A, C, and K. It is also rich in iron, calcium, and magnesium, making it a great food for bone health.

Bell Peppers

Bell peppers come in a variety of colors, including green, red, and yellow. But beyond the visual aspect of them, they’re an excellent source of vitamin C and antioxidants, which can help protect the body against free radicals and inflammation.

]]> One of the best comfort food dishes, without a doubt, is stuffed peppers. Amazingly easy to make and full of flavor, nothing makes us feel warmer on a cold night than tearing into a plate of these beauties.

Have you ever wanted to learn how to prepare Italian stuffed peppers at home? Here’s a recipe for you to try.

Ingredients

  • 3 Bell Peppers
  • 400 g ground beef
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • One cup tomato sauce
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon red wine
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ chopped white onion
  • 10 slices mozzarella cheese

Instructions

Start off by preheating your oven to 375 degrees F. 

Next, you’ll want to halve your peppers and remove the seeds and all of the “guts” from the inside of them. Set them aside on a baking dish lined with aluminum foil.

Once you’ve done this, add the olive oil to a large frying pan and heat on medium heat. After you’ve done this, add the ground beef, tomato sauce, balsamic vinegar, red wine, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, and chopped onion and cook. Stir occasionally.

When you see that the meat is almost cooked, add 4 slices of mozzarella cheese and stir in. This will give the peppers an added boost of creamy flavor.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B_qjJbLFan1/

When your meat is done cooking, fill the insides of the peppers with the ground beef mixture. After they’re full, top them with a slice of mozzarella cheese.

Bake in the oven at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Allow to cool for 15-20 minutes, and enjoy!

]]> Stuffed peppers are one of the best quick and easy dinner choices. Whether it’s stuffing them with cheese or with a mixture of meat, rice, and veggies, it’s so simple to prepare this filling and nutritious dish.

Plenty of peppers can be hollowed out and used for stuffing, and the ingredients that can be put into these peppers can range greatly. Here are some pepper ideas for the next time you decide to make this dish!

Bell Peppers

Bell peppers, whether they’re green, yellow, orange, or red, are a great choice for stuffing due to their large size and fairly neutral flavor. You can stuff them with whatever mix of rice, cheese, meat, and/or vegetables that you like. The possibilities are endless!

Poblano Peppers

This Mexican pepper is a great choice if you want to add a little bit of heat to your stuffed pepper experience. Adding Mexican sauces or cheeses in the stuffing that you choose for them is another great way to step up the flavor quotient.

Cherry Peppers

Are you looking for an Italian-themed stuffed pepper? Small cherry peppers might not hold quite as much as the first two options, but they work great due to their sharp and intense flavor. Stuffing them with fresh mozzarella, which balances out the heat of the pepper is especially great.

Bell peppers are a great ingredient to use in any way you can. What is not widely known about them is that every color, red, green, yellow, and orange, are actually the same type of pepper just picked at different times! They actually do have different tastes and even different nutritional information. For example, red peppers, since they have been on the vine the longest, have 10 times more beta-carotene than green peppers, and 1.5 times more vitamin C. However, all types of peppers have both these vitamins along with B6 and many more. Peppers are perfect for any time of the day, so try using them in one of these recipes!

Nachos

If you are a Tex-Mex fan, you surely love nachos. If you want to make them a bit healthier, add in some sauteed bell peppers on top! Slice up some peppers and onions and saute them with paprika, oregano, salt, and garlic powder until they are soft.

Shakshuka

Shakshuka is an Israeli and North African egg dish which uses diced peppers and tomatoes to create a sauce in which eggs are poached. Spice this dish up with cayenne pepper or harissa paste and you can enjoy it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

~10 Minute Shakshuka 🍳~ Made this shakshuka for brunch over the weekend and was honestly so impressed with how flavorful it was given how quick it came together 🙌🏻 I used a jar of marinara as the base and kicked it up with some Middle-eastern spices like cinnamon, smoked paprika, turmeric, and cumin. Baked a couple pasture raised, organic eggs in there, dolloped some pesto, toasted up some crispy sourdough and called it a day 👏🏻 You can't go wrong with this 💯 Have an awesome week, friends! . . . ▶ In a pan, sautee onions and garlic in a little avo oil. Once cooked, add in about a half a jar of marinara (I used @victoriafinefoods marinara made with avocado oil) + add some smoked paprika, chili flakes, cinnamon, cumin, turmeric, salt, pepper (I just eye balled and adjusted as needed). Crack a few eggs into the sauce and either cover with a lid or bake in oven at 450F until eggs are just set (about 5 minutes). Top with fresh cilantro, a dollop of pesto, and crusty toasted bread to sop up all the sawceee 🤤

Bell peppers are a great ingredient to use in any way you can. What is not widely known about them is that every color, red, green, yellow, and orange, are actually the same type of pepper just picked at different times! They actually do have different tastes and even different nutritional information. For example, red peppers, since they have been on the vine the longest, have 10 times more beta-carotene than green peppers, and 1.5 times more vitamin C. However, all types of peppers have both these vitamins along with B6 and many more. Peppers are perfect for any time of the day, so try using them in one of these recipes!

Nachos

If you are a Tex-Mex fan, you surely love nachos. If you want to make them a bit healthier, add in some sauteed bell peppers on top! Slice up some peppers and onions and saute them with paprika, oregano, salt, and garlic powder until they are soft.

Shakshuka

Shakshuka is an Israeli and North African egg dish which uses diced peppers and tomatoes to create a sauce in which eggs are poached. Spice this dish up with cayenne pepper or harissa paste and you can enjoy it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

~10 Minute Shakshuka 🍳~ Made this shakshuka for brunch over the weekend and was honestly so impressed with how flavorful it was given how quick it came together 🙌🏻 I used a jar of marinara as the base and kicked it up with some Middle-eastern spices like cinnamon, smoked paprika, turmeric, and cumin. Baked a couple pasture raised, organic eggs in there, dolloped some pesto, toasted up some crispy sourdough and called it a day 👏🏻 You can't go wrong with this 💯 Have an awesome week, friends! . . . ▶ In a pan, sautee onions and garlic in a little avo oil. Once cooked, add in about a half a jar of marinara (I used @victoriafinefoods marinara made with avocado oil) + add some smoked paprika, chili flakes, cinnamon, cumin, turmeric, salt, pepper (I just eye balled and adjusted as needed). Crack a few eggs into the sauce and either cover with a lid or bake in oven at 450F until eggs are just set (about 5 minutes). Top with fresh cilantro, a dollop of pesto, and crusty toasted bread to sop up all the sawceee 🤤
