March may not seem like a month to find fresh vegetables and fruit. 

But actually, there are lots of winter produce items in your grocery stores this month!

The Huffington Post put this list together of March Superfoods! 

  1. Collard Greens: rich in potassium, fiber, and vitamins A and C! 
  2. Scallions: related to the onion; an antioxidant found in the onion/garlic/scallion family seems to play a role in cancer prevention!
  3. Turnips: good source of potassium, fiber, and vitamin C. Their greens are also edible -- they're full of iron and calcium!
  4. Radishes: spicy member of the cabbage family, and very low in calories! They're rich in fiber, folate, and potassium!
  5. Artichokes: packed with fiber and vitamin C and K. They're also one of the USDA's top 10 most antioxidant-rich foods!
