Oliver’s is offering one of nature’s superfoods once again! A superfood is low in calories but contains a wealth of nutrients and antioxidants that support many aspects of human health. Broccoli is also a cruciferous vegetable, alongside kale, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, Bok choy, cabbage, collard greens, rutabaga, and turnips.

According to the National Cancer Institute, there is an association between intake of cruciferous vegetables and the risk of 4 types of cancer: prostate, colorectal, breast and lung.

Oliver’s prepares its broccoli in a healthy way…roasted. When vegetables are boiled, nutrients can be lost in the water. If there are cooked in a skillet with oil, the oil can be absorbed and increase calories. By roasting, the nutrients and calories remain the same.

Come and enjoy the, super delicious, super nutritious, Roasted Broccoli this Thursday at Oliver’s!
