Broccoli is a versatile vegetable and very healthy. Broccoli is loaded with Vitamin C, Folic Acid, Vitamin A and fiber. This dark,green vegetable also has calcium and has great cancer preventives.

Spinach is loaded with iron and Popeye got it right. This vegetable, fresh and frozen has totally different taste than found in cans. Spinach has Vitamins E and C, and surprising a lot of fiber than other vegetables.

Peppers,red and green, are chock full of important nutrients for your body. You can find them hot,sweet and in between. All peppers have Vitamins A,C and K. They also have lycopene which has cancer preventive powers.

Garlic is another cancer fighting vegetable. Again the more you use, the more flavor you will get in this dish.
