Treasures of Healthy Living Bible Study

I am enjoying the Treasures of Healthy Living Bible Study that I won in a giveaway. I needed a new Bible study and reading about the foods that God gave us is very interesting. Currently the study has started in a vegetable section and this is what I learned today:

"Cruciferous refers to plants that have flowers with four petals that botanical historians describe as resembling the crucifix or cross; thus they are call cruciferous."

The Magnificent Twelve
Broccoli
Kohlrabi
Cauliflower
Kale
Turnip
Radishes
Rutabaga
Cabbage
Watercress
Brussels Sprouts
Mustard Greens
Horseradish

Further Top Nutritious Vegetables
All dark leafy vegetables
Red bell peppers
Carrots
Peas
Sweet Potatoes
Swiss Chard
Winter Squash
