About Green onion

Green onions, also known as scallions, are a versatile vegetable commonly used in various cuisines including Asian, Mexican, and American dishes. With their mild onion flavor and crisp texture, they are a staple ingredient for garnishes, salads, soups, and stir-fries. Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, green onions are also a source of dietary fiber and contain small amounts of calcium, potassium, and folate. They offer antioxidants that support immune health and promote efficient digestion. Low in calories and fat, green onions are an excellent choice for weight-conscious diets. While generally healthy, individuals sensitive to alliums should consume them in moderation to avoid digestive discomfort. Their unique combination of nutrients and flavor makes green onions both a nutritious and functional addition to a balanced diet.
