Lettuce
Lettuce has a bad reputation for being deficient in nutrients and, in general, being a poor relation to cabbage, spinach, kale, and all the other greens. We’re here to tell you to quit despising lettuce! It’s packed with nutrients if you choose the appropriate sort (not iceberg). Romaine lettuce contains vitamin B, folic acid, and manganese – as do other dark green and purple lettuces.

Quinoa
Quinoa is one of the hottest trends right now, and for a good reason. It’s low in calories but high in protein, making it a filling addition to any meal and a wonderful replacement for rice, pasta, potatoes, and other carbs. There are numerous types of quinoa, but there isn’t much nutritional difference between them, so pick the one you prefer – or mix them!
