EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

“Having high blood pressure, I am sure to take my medicine every day and consistently monitor it. I also see my doctor very faithfully.” Lori S.

Colored bell peppers are outstanding sources of beta-carotene, which your body makes into vitamin A. Vitamin A is necessary for night vision and healthy hair and skin. Roasting bell peppers and onions brings out their naturally sweet flavor, but if you're pressed for time, you can skip this step for a crunchier salad.

This was super YUM! I skipped the basil, mint and the pepperoni but might consider adding some sausage sometime to mix it up. It was great even without it. Best part is my picky kids(ages 4 and 6) even gobbled this up except the onions but no biggie more for me. :)

This is good! I will be making it again. The only thing I did different was I made my own italian dressing and used balsamic vineger. It turned the dish a litte brownish in color because of it and I didnt use mint and my husband thought it was a hit.:)
