Purple Brussel Sprouts
United Salad is currently featuring purple brussels sprouts by the case. They are a sweeter tasting heirloom variety compared to regular green brussels sprouts. What's even more fascinating is they retain their purple color when cooked. Like their green cousins, they are low in calories, yet high in fiber and packed full of vitamins and minerals. In fact, there is more Vitamin C in brussels sprouts than in an orange!
For a fun and healthy splash of color add these to slaws; sauté, braise or roast with other vegetables.
