Green Giant Fire Roasted Tri-Color Peppers
What it is
These are pre-cut bell peppers that have been roasted over an open flame. The roasting process brings out a natural sweetness and a slightly smoky flavor. The tri-color blend typically includes red, yellow, and green bell peppers, offering a vibrant visual appeal. They are flash-frozen to preserve their texture and taste. This product is convenient for quick meal preparation.

You can use these roasted peppers directly from the freezer in most recipes. They can be sautéed for a few minutes to heat through and meld flavors. When adding to sauces or casseroles, stir them in during the last 10-15 minutes of cooking. They can also be placed on a baking sheet and roasted further in the oven for a more intense smoky flavor.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike fresh bell peppers, these are already roasted and cut, saving significant prep time. The fire-roasting imparts a distinct smoky char that fresh peppers do not have. Their frozen state means they are ready to use without washing or chopping.
