Good to know
- A large red pepper (164 g) has about 43 calories, and a cup of chopped pepper (149 g) about 39.
- Green peppers are picked before they ripen: 20 calories and 2.4 g of sugars per 100 g, against 26 and 4.2 g for red.
- Roasted peppers from a jar are often packed in oil. Use the jar’s label for those, not this raw entry.
