Hello, gorgeous. Want to get your family or friends eating more veggies? Us too. And our favorite magic trick lately has everything to do with a little color therapy.
All the fanaticism surrounding rainbow foods can actualyl be great for our health! Each color carries it’s own set of vital nutrients called phytochemicals — bio-active compounds that are essential for a balanced, nourished body — and mixing and matching is the best way to benefit.
Any veggie will do for a rainbow crudité display (bonus points for getting your hands on some stunning pink radicchio or watermelon radishes!), but a few faves to keep in mind include: purple cauliflower, candy stripe beets, fresh spring peas, turnips, every color of tomato, purple carrots and yellow peppers.
Here are four super-nutritious colorful dips to pair with your platter. Which one is your fave?
