I'll second rapini (broccoli rabe) but it's hard to find around here. I saute it in a bit of oil with some garlic, or if I'm lazy I boil for five min.
I like collards because they're hardy and widely available. And if you buy them from the farmer's market, due to the shape it's easier to find hitchhikers than on broccoli/kale/chard.
I recently discovered kohlrabi and really like it. Tastes like broccoli stems and it keeps for several days at least in my fridge (I hate buying stuff that goes off before I remember to cook it, can you tell?). Peel, chop and eat raw or steam like broccoli.0 -
Had to google pattypan just now...
Me too! Hahaha!
Pattypan squash is a species of summer squash notable for its small size, round and shallow shape, and scalloped edges, somewhat resembling a small toy top, or flying saucer. The name "pattypan" derives from "a pan for baking a patty."0 -
Corn On The Cob Leave the husks on, rinse in water and bake at 350 F for 30 minutes. Remove husk, lightly butter and salt. SUMMER PERFECTION !0

Love veggies. Favorites are spinach and mushrooms. I eat spinach every morning with mushrooms and two eggs scrambled together. I also like big spinach salads for dinner with either sauteed chicken or hot dogs. I love to make an easy "stir fry" with Italian sausage, mushrooms and spinach sauteed in butter and hot sauce. I also put mushrooms into marinara sauce over zucchini noodles and I buy portobello mushroom caps and stuff them with a variety of things.
Wow, you sound like a great cook!0 -
Daikon, broccoli, steak0

I like most vegetables, but my top favorites are mesclun greens (salads), spinach (salads, sauteed with garlic, creamed, in various casseroles), Swiss chard (I usually just steam it and either eat it plain or put it in a frittata or a pasta dish), and squash (all kinds, either roasted, sauteed, or steamed).
I generally hate Brussels sprouts, but they are delicious roasted with bacon.0 -
My favorite way to have veggies is raw with some hummus or dip made with fat free sour cream and a ranch packet from Hidden Valley! I love cucumbers, carrots, celery.0

There are very few vegetables I do not like. I hate artichokes, and not really keen on salad stuffs, but I love broccoli, spinach(especially creamed), asparagus, snow peas, babycorn, mushrooms and butternut squash. I love roast parsnips and brussels sprouts too, lol. I had brussels sprouts tonight actually. I usually have a Ib of vegetables a day.0

Nearly all of them that I've tried...
Roasted brussel sprouts, asparagus, zucchini, eggplant, broccoli...
Avocado (although technically a fruit I believe) peas, corn, raw carrots, bell peppers...
Spinach! It's like my favorite!0 -
Spaghetti Squash - top with tomato sauce just like pasta!0
-
Broccoli, steamed with some rice wine with some sesame oil and oyster sauce.0

Love roasted veggies! I spray olive oil on the pan, thinly slice onions, minced garlic and toss with...
sweet potatoes
eggplant, butternut, summer, zucchini or acorn squash
cauliflower and/or broccoli
mushrooms
Every week I made a big pot of veggie soup with whatever's in season - this week it has okra, tomato, yellow squash, onion, garlic, eggplant, and spinach (I roast the eggplant and yellow squash before I add it to the soup). This helps me stay low carb when I want to.
Also love to sauté some onion and garlic, add a chicken bullion cube and one cup of water and steam a pile of green beans until all the water's gone.
Tomorrow I'm grilling eggplant and zucchini to go with grilled chicken and turkey tenderloins. My favorite way to eat onions on the grill is whole, cut out a small hole where the root grows. Put a beef bullion cube and a small pat of butter, wrap it in tin foil and throw it on the grill. They taste like French onion soup!
I keep baked sweet potatoes around and have them with cinnamon.0 -
Nope.
Y'all are some sickos0 -
Blacken carrots in a sauté with olive oil.
And yeah sweet potatoes if they count. Thought they were more if a starchy thing like regular potatoes.0 -

What a great idea! I'll have to try it! I love French onion soup.
I love brussels sprouts roasted with garlic & balsamic vinegar, cauliflower roasted with some garlic & lemon juice, chinese broccoli, bok choy, spinach, water spinach and greens in general - stir fried with some garlic/sesame oil/soy sauce, zucchini, yellow squash, corn cooked any way, sweet potatoes, regular potatoes, daikon, carrots cooked & raw, broccoli, peas, artichoke...I like a lot of different veg.
I like more veg than I dislike. I dislike: beets, eggplant, bell peppers, mushrooms.0 -
I'm a fan of Brussels Sprouts. I just boil them with a little salt or steam them and put some butter on them. lol0
