Cabbage
A common ingredient used in most salads and slaws is the old-fashioned cabbage. Unlike other veggies, we can say that cabbage is pretty humble but as humble as it is, it does offer a wide range of health benefits. It is packed with vitamin C, vitamin K, folate, and even calcium. Besides, one cup of cabbage, namely 89 grams, has only 22 calories.
Carrots
When we think about carrots, we instantly picture the popular orange veggie, but carrots can also be purple, yellow, red, and even white. We also tend to associate carrots consumption with good eyesight, and this is mainly because carrots are abundant in beta-carotene, a compound converted to vitamin A.
But enough of its eye-related health benefits… because you probably want to know how many calories are in one cup serving of carrots. Well, only 53 calories.

I just can’t until my garden get in full swing. Thats when I becomes a rabbit morning , noon and night. Means I’m eating my meal from the garden and get slim , feeling great all day. I guess it was from my grandmother because I was with her in the garden before it got hot during the summer. As always eating more then getting up the weeds. Also now day all is different because of my age and weight control. Still very relaxing , smell of fresh air in the morning.
