Colorful fruits and veggies...

[sretan]

Ok, so we do eat fruits and veggies, but I think we need to incorporate different things and I'm not sure which to try. I was thinking of trying a new colored fruit or veggie every week...What are your suggestions, by color?

We like peppers, yellow, red, & green, and tomatoes, purple potatoes, brussel sprouts, avocado, sweet potatoes. We'll add a corn salsa to a taco dish, too. Apples, red & green, pears, berries: all kinds, bananas, grapes: red & green. There's so much to choose from.

I agree with the previous post...we eat lots of fruits and veggies!  Berries - strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries; grapes, oranges, red apples, bananas, mangoes, broccoli, onions, peppers - red, yellow, & green, tomatoes, romaine lettuce, mushrooms....those are some of my favorites:)

Let's see I'll think of some colors then say what I love... It's gonna be hard to pick just one for each though! Yellow -yellow squash, Red- tomato, Green- spinach (although I'm craving jalepenos, and green has all the best ones so hard to choose!), blue - blueberry of course, pink - pink lady apple yum, brown- jicama, orange - sweet potato, purple- radish. Did I forget any colors?

For what's in season now in my area - asparagus (green), kale (dark green), cabbage (purple), eggplant (purple), squash (yellow and green), carrots (yellow and rainbow colored), apples (rainbow of colors), mandarins (orange), pears (many colors)

white - jicama

purple - eggplant

[TheHappyChicken]

Red - apples, beets, radishes, raspberries, strawberries

Blue/Purple - Eggplant, Black and BlueBerries

Yellow - Banana's, Squashes, Pineapples

Oranges - Sweet potatoes, Oranges

..ummm those are what come to mind.. although when I go shopping I always keep an eye out for interesting looking veggies to try.. like star fruits, japanese eggplants, various squashes, rutabega.... things like that. =)

What a fun idea:

Purple:

Eggplant

Blueberries

Grapes

Purple potatoes

Purple kale

Red chard ('s not red at all!)

Turnip

Tayberries (cross between raspberries and blackberries)

Blackberries (not black at all!)

Japanese eggplant (softer purple)

Purple cabbage

Thank you all!! We decided to try avocado (I've eaten, DH & DS have not.) So I made chicken tacos with whole grain tortillas and avocado and beans and they both ate it up! And we also got spaghetti squash which we have tried once before but I wanted to try again. And peaches. My son is hesitant on peaches, wouldn't eat them before, I have no idea why, I love them! So he got to pick a new fruit to try and that's what he picked. I'm going to try a new color next week, maybe purple.
