Broccoli is also considered one of the major anti-cancer foods. Broccoli tastes better when its crunchy not when its over cooked.
Broccoli omelet is another way to relish this bundle of nutrition. Eggs are an important source of protein, essential vitamins and minerals and can make a significant contribution to a healthy diet. The yolks are a rich source of Lutein(good for eye sight) and Zeaxanthin, (carotenoids) essential vitamins with antioxidant value . Organic eggs are much healthier .Organic eggs are from hens given no hormones or antibiotics and fed only organically certified feed grown without pesticides, insecticides or herbicides.
