Broccoli??
 

How many carbs are in 1 cup of cooked broccoli??

Here's a good resource for carb counts:
http://www.carb-counter.org/veg/search/Broccoli/1100

There are about 3 carbs in a cup of cooked broccoli.

Thanx for that link http://www.lowcarbsite.com/images/sm...on_biggrin.gif
I was wondering how you got 3 since I seen 7 carbs but then seen you minus 3, BUT what does ECC mean??

I think ECC stands for effective carbohydrate count. Atkins calls it "net carbs". It's the total carb minus the fiber carbs.

? in my dr. atkins little carb counter book it says 1/2 c. is 2.2 and 1 cup would then be 4.4?

Here is what the Atkins website has for carb counts on broccoli:

Broccoli boiled ½ cup 1.6 (3.2 per cup)
Broccoli raw ½ cup 1.0 (2.0 per cup)

My DANDR book says 1.7 for 1/2 cup (3.4 per cup) but it doesn't say raw or cooked.

My Atkins Eating For Life book says 0.8 for 1/2 cup of raw flowerets (1.6 per cup) and 2.2 for 1/2 cup (4.4 per cup) of frozen chopped and then steamed broccoli.

Take your pick! LOL

ah! so many to choose from.. can i be selfish and pick the one w/ the lowest carb count ha ha.. i always eat mine steamed, which do you think would be the most appropriate choice of carb count. i typically use the 2.2/half cup or 4.4/cup and have been doing alright but i would LOVE to eat MORE broccoli http://www.lowcarbsite.com/images/sm..._surprised.gif) i probably could afford to to definitely get up to the 12-15 veggie carbs a day. broccoli is seem as a salad veggie correct?

I think it's on the "other veggie" list, but that doesn't really matter in the newest version of Atkins (the website info). They say, just stay within the 12 to 15 carbs from veggies per day in Induction. If you want it to all come from broccoli, you can.

YAY! THat made my day lol. i LOVE broccoli. the other two times i did atkins i used to eat so many salads. not really realizing that they didn't do that much for me.. but broccoli, asparagus, green beans.. mmm so much better! What i love about atkins is it opens up my eyes to so many options with all the foods that i love

and you add no more when you add chedar cheese and butter on top... yummy yummy
