HEALTH BENEFITS OF SHEET PAN INGREDIENTS:

 

SWEET POTATOES

There is so much to love about sweet potatoes including all its incredible health benefits! This root veggie contains a significant amount of vitamin A, which may reduce the risk of macular degeneration and night blindness, prevent heart disease and cancer, strengthen our immunity and help muscle growth in children!

BELL PEPPERS

Red and orange bell peppers contain more vitamin C than an orange! One of these peppers contains approximately 190% of your daily recommended intake! Vitamin C aids in immunity by keeping your immune system strong and preventing your risk of disease. It also helps your body produce collagen, which is essential for skin health along with wound healing.

ZUCCHINI

Zucchini contains both soluble and insoluble fiber, which is important for digestion! Soluble fiber dissolves in water creating a gel like consistency to aid in digestion. Insoluble fiber draws water into your stool, creating bulk. Adding zucchini into recipes is just one way to get these different types of fiber into your diet.
