Key Points
   

For the best buy, choose cauliflower that is firm and heavy with a white and creamy color.

To prepare cauliflower, wash and trim florets from stalks.

To keep fresh, store in the refrigerator, unwashed in a plastic bag, for up to 1 week.

Cauliflower contains vitamin C, which is good for fighting colds and healing cuts.

Easy Additions

Eat raw cauliflower with a low-fat salad dressing for a healthy, crunchy snack.

Add cauliflower to any veggie stir-fry recipe.

Use cooked cauliflower in soups, stews, or pasta dishes.

Remember to rinse all fruits and vegetables before using.
