As a lazy person who grew up with a parent who's method of cooking vegetables was just "boil it till its grey!", if a vegetable can be eaten raw, I will be eating it raw.

Raw broccoli dipped in garlic greek yoghurt is delicious, nutritious and fast/lazy to prepare.

I'm on the hunt for a vegan alternative that is decent, but until then, crunchy carrots and sugar snap peas are my go-to lazy veggies.

Raw broccoli and a good hummus is a great alternative. It's a salad combination i use quite frequently.

Raw broccoli…Oh man I do not want to smell your farts. I mean you don’t even have to boil them but give them just a hot dip to reduce the raffinose

Maybe it's because I'm on prescription probiotics and digestive enzymes, but I haven't noticed a drastic change in my farts from the broccoli. They used to absolutely reek before I went low-dairy and started being a little more mindful of FODMAPS.

Now pea protein powder? that amplifies my flatulence to war crime levels.

Or just steamed a bit. I hate mushy broccoli with a passion.
