Related to Broccoli
Cauliflower
Closest swap by texture and cook time. Cauliflower (111 g/cup) is heavier than broccoli (95 g/cup) and much milder, so the dish loses the green-vegetal note. Roasts, steams, and rices the same way. See our Cauliflower converter.
Cabbage
Shredding cabbage instead? The cabbage converter works out whole-head weights and shredded cups across small, medium, and large sizes. See cabbage heads in pounds.
