Leafy greens: Even if you despise them know that they are the best pregnancy foods that you can ever have. Choose spinach, fenugreek, mustard greens, collard greens, leafy lettuce and make them a regular in your diet plan.

Broccoli: Add this veggie to your diet to get its dual benefits – calcium and folate.

Sweet potatoes:They are high in their nutritional value. Apart from being a rich source of vitamin A they are also high in potassium and dietary fibre.

Bell peppers: We all know that fruits especially citrus fruits are a great source of vitamin C. But veggies aren’t much far behind. Did you know bell peppers are a rich source of vitamin C which helps in repair and growth of the tissues in the body?

Tomatoes: They are an all time favorite among the other veggies. You can use them as salads, add to stir fries or just have them raw.

Green peas: It’s difficult to incorporate protein from a vegetable source. But green peas just present you with it in large amounts.

Avocados: Though a bit uncommon if compared to the other regular veggies but is packed with many nutrients.
