11/1/2008 - Nutritious EndiveWhen was the last time you chose endive from your grocers shelf? Though its white and pale green leaves suggest otherwise (generally, the deeper the color, the more healthful the vegetable), endive is chock-full of vitamins and minerals. One raw head, at only 87 calories, provides the following rather astonishing amounts of your recommended daily allowance of nutrients. Iron 24%, Protein 6 grams, Vitamin A 222% and Vitamin C 56%. So next time you roll by the greens section, pick up a head of endive and crunch happily.
