Leeks

With a milder taste and smell than onions, this vegetable sweetens as they cook. Look for this veggie during the fall and winter months, as they take several months to mature. They contain C, which is good for immune response, and K which is involved with blood clotting.

Storage Tips
-Wrap in a damp cloth or paper towel, unwashed and untrimmed, and they will stay good in the fridge for 2 to 3 weeks.
