Vegetables are commonly defined as the edible parts of plants — which can include roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and sometimes immature fruits. They’re nature’s nourishment — offering us a rich source of nutrients, ready to be incorporated into a myriad of dishes.
We’ve collected the ultimate list of vegetable names that start with S — all the way from Scallion to Sweet Potatoes.
