Sweet Pepper, Lunchbox Snack

Lunchbox peppers produce a ton of smaller (3 to 4 inch) long sweet peppers that are perfect for snacking. They taste great fresh and are wonderful and colorful additions to salad. But they are at their best when grilled for a sweet pepper finger food that just can't be beat.

Sweet Pepper: These peppers were native to North America before spreading across the world. They deserve their worldwide appeal too! Sweet peppers run the gamut from smaller lunchbox size to large boxy stuffing peppers. Their flavors can be smokey or sweet or sharp. All of which are worth exploring!

Growing Tips: Sweet peppers love sun and heat! They do great all summer long in a greenhouse as well as in the garden. Give peppers plenty of fertility and at least 12 inches between plants.
