Broccoli is just incredible. Every ½ cup of cooked broccoli can offer you about 25 mg of zinc. You may have noticed that the total amount of zinc in broccoli is on the low end, compared to other foods on this list, yet, broccoli contains one of the highest zinc levels per kcal of any vegetable.

So while it’s not going to get you to your recommended daily amount, it can play a supporting role in a stir-fry or as a dipper.
