Radish – A Super Food

Did you know that Radish is a superfood and Mexico has a fun Radish Festival every year?

Radish is an edible vegetable and a member of the cabbage family.  It is consumed throughout the world, but is still unknown to a lot of people. These small, red cherry-sized ones are very popular. Radishes contain Vitamin C, zinc, and some B-12 components.

These maintain proper hydration, improve your digestive system and help intake nutrients from the food you eat.

They are crunchy and peppery and generally used in salads, sandwiches, as a pickle, or with a dip. The young leaves are delicious and can be cooked the same way as spinach.
