Prepare the Bell Pepper.
Wash the bell pepper thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or residues. Pat it dry with a clean towel. Cut the bell pepper in half and remove the seeds and white membranes. Then slice half of the bell pepper into thin strips, about 1/4 inch wide. Measure out 80 grams of these strips for your serving.
Tip: Use a sharp knife for clean cuts and to avoid bruising the pepper. -
Prepare the Cheese Stick.
Take a low-fat cheese stick and cut it to approximately 38 grams to match the target nutritional values. You can slice it into sticks or bite-sized pieces, whichever you prefer for easy eating.
Tip: If the cheese stick is refrigerated, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly for better texture. -
Assemble and Serve.
Arrange the sliced bell pepper strips and the cheese stick pieces on a plate. This snack is ready to eat immediately—no cooking required.
Tip: Serve chilled or at room temperature depending on your preference.
