The Co-op has lots of green onions in stock for $1.31 a bunch! Green onions are so versatile! They can be scrambled with eggs and cooked in many other ways; they can be eaten raw on salads or as a garnish. They are in the Allium family so they are antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. They are a cheap and tasty way to eat some allium every day and stay healthy! Hint from Judy: cut them up into 1/4 - 1/2" pieces and store in a jar in fridge and they are ready to use and store better.
