The undisputed kings of vegetable land.
It may sound like I’m overselling them, but in fact I cannot say enough about this particular group of veggies. They are almost always the most prominent part of a plant and our species has undoubtedly made leaves a major part of our diets for a long, long time. The dark, leafy greens in particular are known as nutritional powerhouses, providing a great source of calcium for those who are lactose intolerant. In case my gushing isn’t enough to convince you, I believe that leaves should be eaten every day in large quantities. Over the next few days, I’ll be breaking down them down into groups and if you’re not convinced of their power yet, you surely will be within a week!
