I'd suggest using frozen bag vegetables. From what I've read, the nutrients are flash frozen and they keep that way from the grocery store freezer case and in your own freezer at home. Buying fresh is actually not the best.
I use Kale, Spinach and Broccoli with some bananas to neutralize the taste.
BTW, after being into weightlifting for years I can honestly say I've never seen muscle gains like what I've had since taking in lots of greens. I'm in better shape than I was at 20.

you are right about the frozen vegetables, they are frozen when they are at peak ripeness and don't lose much when frozen, but buying fresh is always ALWAYS going to taste a lot better so saying they aren't the best is ridiculous. They are definitely more convenient to store frozen though I'll give you that.
muscle gains come from eating proteins and overloading with weights.. not eating broccoli...
