Purple Veggie Mix

Purple foods are rich in anthocyanins which are natural plant pigments that give food its vibrant purple color. Anthocyanins are a type of flavonoids and are water-soluble pigments belonging to the phenolic group. Flavanoids have an antioxidant effect, meaning they fight free radicals that damage cells and decrease the risk of certain diseases. Although plant matter is not essential for canines, small amounts can be beneficial.

This purple-inspired veggie mix uses two anthocyanin-packed vegetables plus a little kick of green.

Ingredients

• ½ cup of dandelion greens
