Raw leaves. Spinach collapses dramatically when cooked — a 200g pile of raw leaves becomes a few tablespoons, so weigh before cooking for accurate logs.
How does spinach fit your goals?
Spinach delivers a balanced macro profile (1.7g protein / 2.2g carbs / 0.2g fat per 2 cups raw (60g)), which makes it easy to fit into almost any tracking plan. Foods like this are particularly useful as base ingredients in meal prep, because they don't lock you into a specific macro split — you can pair them with whatever your daily target needs more of.
Diet-wise, spinach fits keto, low-carb, and vegan and vegetarian eating patterns.
Micronutrients worth noting
Beyond the macros, spinach pulls real weight on vitamin C (19% DV) per 2 cups raw (60g) — the kind of micronutrient density that calorie counts alone don't show.
