Preparation Tips:

  • Wash the bell peppers thoroughly.
  • Remove the stem, seeds, and membranes before cooking to ensure they are easy to digest for babies.
  • Bell peppers can be steamed, roasted, or sautéed until soft. They can also be served raw if finely grated or minced for older babies.
  • Puree cooked bell peppers for a smooth consistency suitable for younger babies. For older babies, small, soft pieces can encourage self-feeding and exploration of textures.

Common Allergies: Bell pepper allergies are rare but possible, as they belong to the nightshade family. Monitor for any signs of an allergic reaction when introducing bell peppers to your baby for the first time.

Seasonality: Bell peppers are available year-round, but they are at their peak from July to September.
