Steamed, no added oil or butter. Roasting with olive oil is great for flavour but can easily double the calorie count — track the oil separately.

How does broccoli fit your goals?

Broccoli is a carb-dominant food, with 7.2g of carbohydrate per 100g (steamed). That makes it a useful pre- or post-training fuel source, especially for endurance work or higher-volume strength sessions. If you're tracking for fat loss, the lever isn't avoiding carbs — it's portioning them around the parts of your day where the energy is actually used.

Diet-wise, broccoli fits low-carb and vegan and vegetarian eating patterns.

Micronutrients worth noting

Beyond the macros, broccoli pulls real weight on fiber (12% DV) and vitamin C (72% DV) per 100g (steamed) — the kind of micronutrient density that calorie counts alone don't show.
