Made With Love 4: Bell Pepper Bread Roll // Kwatro Amigas Recipe (My Version)


Today's snack is Bell Pepper Bread Roll. In the original recipe, this bread roll includes Ham. However, since I don't eat pork and beef nowadays I excluded any meat ingredients.

In my last blog post, I said that I met my high school buddies and that we cooked and ate a lot. This recipe was included in our menu that day. When I told them not to include ham in my share of bread roll they laughed at me and said that I am weird. Fortunately, the finished product was very delicious and my buddies told me to share the bread roll to my mother who surprisingly like it very much.

So, Bell Peppers? Do you like Bell Peppers as much as I do? Because my friends always give me their bell peppers whenever we eat and I can say that it's one of my favorite foods. :)

What are its health benefits?
  1. Contains Vitamin A, which is good for the eyesight.
  2. Contains Vitamin C, which is good for our immune system.
  3. Good for pregnant women because it provides folate which helps prevent certain types of birth defects in unborn children.
  4. Contains Lycopene which helps fight free radicals.
  5. High source of potassium
