small amounts of most fruits, except for citrus fruits is ok, but less than 5% of fruits should be in their daily diet. Broccili isn't a good vegetable either.

The link BDLvr is a great chart to base daily feedings with.

Variety is the key. A good salad would be one to three staples (collard greens, dandelion greens, mustard greens etc) plus several others and rotate the staples and the occasional greens and vegetables to ensure a healthy diet overall.
