I'm
Sydney
from
Benton
elementary
school,
a
wellness
school
of
distinction
and
today
we'll
be
tasting
purple
cauliflower
purple
cauliflower
ranges
in
a
color
from
the
light
lavender
to
a
deep
purple.
Peak
season
to
purchase
cauliflower
is
in
the
fall
and
winter
months.
Purple
cauliflower
is
high
in
fiber
and
vitamin
C.
The
purple
color
is
due
to
an
antioxidant
which
is
also
found
in
red,
cabbage
and
red
grapes.
Mckenna
did
you

the
entire
plan
of
cauliflower
is
edible,
