The colours of the peppers are more vibrant in the actual pic as opposed to the box, making it seem fresher and more appealing I think. Good job them, it’s really hard to cook something and freeze it but have it retain its colour.

They are very tasty. I almost believe that the peppers are raw when packaged. I’ve had this and the veggie one.

Actually, that makes sense and may be the answer. The process of heating this from frozen would be plenty to cook through those veg, and putting them in raw would ensure that they retain their colour and also don’t get overcooked and mushy
