04/17/2018

roasted carrots

Asparagus, beets, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, New Potatoes, onions green peas, rhubarb, snap peas, spinach, yellow squash, zucchini are ripe and delicious this time of year in Southeast Texas and Louisiana.  There are many other fresh veggies joining this list in late May (stay tuned for these later this month).  Vegetables are a powerhouse of vitamins and minerals to help protect us from disease.  Learn to make recipes using vegetables the whole family can enjoy.  For example, Roasted Baby Carrots (see recipe) are loaded with antioxidant vitamins and enjoyed by kids and adults!
