7.Collard Greens
One serving has 338 micrograms of vitamin A, more than a third (for men) to a half (for women) of your daily requirement. A member of the cabbage family, collards grow in a bouquet. Their large leaves collect soil, so rinse them well before use. Many beloved soul food and Southern recipes call for collard greens to be slow cooked with pork. To cut the saturated fat, skip the meat and saute them in a little oil and season with your choice of spices.
8.Bok Choy
Toss some chopped bok choy into your next stir-fry. Also called “Chinese cabbage,” it has crunchy white stems and delicate green leaves. It’s a great source of vitamins A and C, plus folate. Bok choy is also a “cruciferous” veggie, like arugula, Brussels sprouts, and cauliflower. Natural compounds in those veggies may help lower your risk of some types of cancer.
