On the topic of vegi's!

How do you all season your vegi's. I love vegi's, but just really don't know how to cook them to make them taste good, but still keep them healthy. Any suggestions?

garlic salt and cayenne pepper, I put that on just about everything I eat!

Wolfena

Salt, pepper, garlic powder, lemon pepper, butter spray, vinegar - or even just plain is good for me!

it depends on the veggie
asparagus= dill or mint
mashed potatoes = garlic and white pepper
cabbage = red wine vinegar
green beans = cider vinegar pepper and celery salt
peas = onion
cauliflower= taragon or rosemary
potatoes = rosemary and basil or thyme and garlic

I made these the other night- Cut up 2-3 yams with peel on into small pieces/cubes, cut 3-4 squash or zucchini into bigger pieces, add about 20 baby carrots, and sliced onion if you like it. Drizzle with a tiny bit of olive oil and toss to coat. Pour into a baking pan or cookie sheet lined with foil if metal (not needed if glass) sprinkle with pepper, a little salt, onion and garlic powders(scarce amounts), and bake uncovered for 40 minutes at 350. It was sooo yummy. You can use small red potatoes too but sweet potatoes/yams have a lot more vitamins. I also love cauliflower cooked to tender them mashed with a little fat free cream cheese and salt and pepper to taste. I use garlic and onion powder on all my veggies.

I do most of what everyone else suggested: garlic and onion powders, cayenne, salt, pepper... I also tend to use a lot of lemon juice. If I roast them I use chicken stock to toss them in so they keep moisture and I don't have to use oil. I also use a mixed spice from a specialty spice store called Foxpoint Seasoning. I get it at Penzey's spices which has a store online. I'll use that and lemon juice on a lot of stuff. Also try Mrs. Dash. They have so many different flavored Mrs. Dashes now!

I put red pepper flake and garlic on everything I eat. It helps me eat my veggies . . . and I'm very, very picky.
