blueberry pancakes with blueberry syrup

purple grapes

eggplant?

plums

Um...okay that's all I've got for purple. Maybe dye the milk purple.

Use food coloring and have purple eggs and purple pancakes.

I would do berry yogurt. Eggplant fries, boiled eggs, add some food coloring if you "have to" personally I'd boil them peel them and then return to boil w a few leaves red cabbage. I would do blueberry smoothies, mYbe egg rolls or filled wontons w cabbage( red) and shrimp. Maybe a grape rhubarb pie?

Also, stand celery in grape juice, let it soak up the color!!!

Grape Popsicle--even make them from grape juice
Beets
If you cook your pasta in beet juice it will turn purple

[DaycareMama]

I have cooked pasta in purple food coloring for sensory play. Worked awesome. You can also use cool aide packets to die the water to "color" stuff and it will give the items a slight grape taste and smell sooo yummy!

Yep....just did blue spaghetti today since our color for the day is blue.....no reason why you can't serve purple spaghetti for lunch

purple cow - http://www.food.com/recipe/purple-cow-24820 It's a drink. Very easy and tasty. As I recall, you can just make it without mixing it with the ice.

Purple cabbage or cabbage slaw from purple cabbage.
