2. Broccoli

Broccoli is one of the most nutritious vegetables. Both the stems and the crowns contain fiber: more than five grams in every cup. Eat it raw with a tasty dip for a filling snack, or steam it (don't boil, because many of the nutrients will get lost in the water) to top rice or add to a stirfry.

In addition to vital fiber, this cruciferous veggie also contains lots of vitamin C, potassium, and calcium.
