Hi hummel13,
what do you mean? the sprinkles on the plate or the green pepper? those sprinkles were just some herbs (more for decoration than flavour enhancement). I think it was dried parsley.
Ahhh and now reading through the ingredients again I understand. Green bell pepper isn't mentioned. I have to add that then. All the colours you see, it is all pepper.
