:: Nutritional Information::

1. Broccoli: Broccoli, as most people know, is rich in vitamins and low in calories. Half a cup of boiled broccoli contains about 22 calories, only 12 calories if it's raw. Broccoli has high content of folic acids, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, and carotene. When the broccoli is bluish green and purplish gree, there is more Vitamin C and carotene. Carotene is an unsaturated hydrocarbon that is essential for our diet.
Store broccoli in a plastic bag inside the fridge. The cold keeps the nutrients in tact. Broccolis will be the msot fresh after within 3 day sof purchase. Don't wash the broccoli before putting it in the fride because the moisture will create mold.

2. Pea: One cup of pea contains a little over 100 calories. Peas are an excellent source of Vitamin A, B, and C. Because peas are part of the legume family, they are high in protein and fiber.
