To maintain a healthy diet and good eating habits, it is necessary to follow a balanced diet, but if
you also want to give yourself a hand by consuming low-calorie foods, this is for you. Discover which vegetables have the fewest calories.

Mushrooms

No matter what type of mushroom you decide to use in your recipes, you can be sure that it will be full of nutrients with very few calories (15 per cup).

Zucchini

This is a staple food for weight loss, as it satisfies you quickly and for longer, and only adds 20 calories per cup.

Arugula

This vegetable is great for making salads, and the best part is that in 10 grams you will only consume 3 calories.

Broccoli

Broccoli not only has few calories, but it also provides large amounts of vitamin C. 91 grams of broccoli equals 31 calories.

Cabbage

In addition to being a super versatile ingredient that you can use in salads, broths, or stews, cabbage only adds 22 calories per cup.

Lettuce

Very similar to arugula, lettuce provides vitamins and nutrients without adding extra calories to your meal. For every cup of lettuce, you only consume 5 calories.

Kale

No wonder kale is considered a superfood. One cup of kale (equivalent to 5 calories) helps prevent cancer and regulates blood sugar levels.

Chile

Chile is a low-calorie vegetable (about 30 per half cup), but its natural components also help burn more calories after consumption.

Asparagus

If you've never cooked with asparagus, after learning that one cup of this vegetable has only 27 calories, you'll surely be encouraged to include them in more recipes.

Cucumber

A fresh option, both for salads, creams, or smoothies, that does not increase your caloric intake. In 100 grams of cucumber, there are only 16 calories.

Beet

Despite having such a sweet taste, beets are low in calories. One cup of beet has less than 60 calories.

Fill your refrigerator with these vegetables and prepare delicious low-calorie recipes.
