Leeks not only satisfy your onion craving, they are also very good for the body.
Leeks are a good source of dietary fiber and also contain goodly amounts of folic acid, calcium, potassium, and vitamin C. They are easier to digest than their relative, the standard onion. Leeks have laxative, antiseptic, diuretic, and anti-arthritic properties.
