Five exciting Spring vegetables

Fennel – Revered for its unique licorice-like flavor, fennel contains a unique blend of phytonutrients. Specifically, these compounds are thought to reduce inflammation and reduce the risk of cancer, and when combined with fiber, as is the case in fennel, can help eliminate potentially carcinogenic toxins from the colon to prevent colon cancer.

Vidalia onions – Although other onion varieties are available year round, it’s worth stocking up on sweet Vidalia onions during their short spring season. These onions – which make a great addition to salads, dressings and egg dishes.

Mustard Greens – Great for infusing a little flavor into your salad or as a side dish all on their lonesome, mustard greens – whose season runs through the beginning of May – are perhaps most prized for their high vitamin K, A and C content.

Artichoke Hearts – Bring a high content of fiber, potassium, calcium, iron, phosphorus and other essential minerals, there isn’t much artichokes can’t do. Specifically, they have been associated with promoting liver health, particularly among folks who drink alcohol heavily or otherwise have compromised liver function, as well as staving off arteriosclerosis, gout, and migraine headaches.

Asparagus – Although asparagus is now readily available year round its peak season is April to June. Asparagus is easy to prepare, try steamed, grilled or our favorite oven roasted.
