Actually the green stuff that most people eat on top of their hamburgers is kale.

Is kale better than broccoli in terms of nutrients?
user
It’s hard to say because broccoli and kale have similar levels of nutrients. Broccoli contains more vitamin A and beta-carotene. Also, kale has the vitamin C antioxidant, which helps reduce cell damage from free radicals.

Some people like to eat broccoli raw?  Do you get more nutrients that way?
user
Eating raw is healthier than eating cooked, but there are many exceptions, so if you really want to get as much nutrition as possible, I suggest cooking the veggies as little as possible and don’t mix too much of the cooking.

Is it okay to microwave broccoli?  Will it still retain the nutrients?
