[scoob21]

Boring question this but I am trying to add some fibrous vegetables to my diet and could do to know how many cals and carbs there are in 100g of broccoli. Anyody know?

dont worry about it it takes more calories to digest the broccoli than is in it!! but if you really wanna know there is about 40 cals and 8 carbs!!

half those carbs are fiber

Brocolli is the king of vegetables!

I'd like to add some to my diet, but how do you prepare it? I imagine buying frozen and re-heating is a bad idea. And doesn't steaming or boiling cause it to lose vitamins/nutrients or something?

(I'm probably way off, so feel free to help me out.)

Thanks meathead!! Where did you get the info, do you have access to a calorie counter or something?

 

[Babyfaced Assassin]

just steam it xbdawggx
u can get microwaveable steam pouches of it here which are very time saving and convenient albeit expensive

Meathead, thats cool. We still do not have nutrirional values on all our foods here in the U.K.
I presume the 100g values you gave me were for uncooked stuff?
