It was an eventful weekend in terms of our vegetable bracket
so before we jump into today’s big game, let’s recap the weekend events and
look at our bracket below! In the battle between sweet potatoes and the honeynut
butternut squash, sweet potatoes pulled ahead with the win. Broccoli romanesco
and Brussels sprouts battled it out on Saturday but the broccoli romanesco
pulled ahead with the ‘LIKES’. The weekend finished off with rutabagas nearly
sweeping the board against the celeriac.
Today we have our final
match-up before the 8 elite vegetables start competing for the title of
champion in our vegetable bracket. It’s another game of colors today with the Beauty
Heart Radishes trying to out shine the Red Beets. As all honorable matches start, let’s meet the
competitors!
The beauty heart
radishes bring a crisp, colorful, sweet and mild kick to the table. Versatile,
like many of the vegetable competitors, these vibrant radishes are great for
both stir-frys and as on-the-go snacks with a veggie dip. They also make a great topping for pizzas and
salads! Beauty and Heart are exactly what these radishes are bringing to this
match-up.
Fighting the Beauty Heart Radishes we have the infamous Red
Beets. These beets keep a few tricks up their sleeves – I mean leaves! Not only
do they work great on salads and in soups, they also work wonders for
fermenting and, shocking to some, are a hidden gem for many desserts! Chocolate
beet cake anyone? It’s not easy to beat the beets, but today’s match-up will
show us just how true that really is!
So vegetable lovers, who is going to be our final competitor
joining the elite 8 vegetables – the kicking beauty heart radishes or the
unbeatable red beets? Head back to our Facebook page and place your vote!
