What's the deal with vegetables, /fit/?
I'm finding conflicting information out there. I buy something similar to pic related: a frozen bag of broccoli & cauliflower that you microwave for 5 minutes for a very simple addition to a meal. Some websites out there though say that this is bad and I should be eating raw instead. Others say just don't cook it too much and it's fine.
What is the best method of cooking (if at all) my veggies?
I just put a bunch of veggies on a pan and make some soup. It's simple, tasty and nutritious
I tried to eat vegetables like that but they tasted too green. Now I just bake or sautee them.

Those bags aren't bad but don't microwave em.. just let it defrost and eat raw.

>Foods with high amounts of vitamins B and C are best fresh because the vitamins are water-soluble, meaning they’re usually dissolved in food processing. In the fresh produce section, go for bell peppers, citrus fruits, cabbage, and berries.
>Foods that are best frozen are those with high amounts of fat-soluble nutrients, like vitamin A, carotenoids, and vitamin E, because they’re more stable during food processing and storage (like blanching and freezing). So when hitting the frozen aisle, go for carrots, leafy greens, and broccoli.

This. And often far more convenient. Veggies that don't get eaten don't contribute much.
