Rhubarb
What: Though frequently considered a fruit, rhubarb is botanically a vegetable.
Why we love it: The sweet plant is rich in potassium, vitamin C, and fiber. And it's delicious.
How to eat it: Rhubarb is commonly baked into pies and cobblers. For a healthier spin, spread rhubarb jam across a slice of raisin-studded multi-grain. Alternatively, try the delectable warm rhubarb crumble at
Tea & Sympathy. Hot custard or whipped cream optional.
Celebrity fans: Jessica Biel, Katherine Heigl.
