Broccoli is a winter vegetable, so many grocery stores carry it even during the coldest months of the year. It strengthens your child’s bones and can be steamed and added to pasta, tacos, and lasagna, or eaten on its own.

Broccoli can be purchased fresh, frozen, or canned using your WIC benefits. Pick some up today!
