I have never been a big veggie eater and have not tried many different ones since I started my weight loss.

I want to know what new veggies you have tried and love now?
any recipes that you love?

Thanks for the help!!!

    Roasted Asparagus is the one veggie I was never fond of, but love it now.

    I put the Asparagus in a roasting pan, drizzle with coconut oil, sprinkle sea salt and fresh cracked black pepper and throw it in the oven for a bit until it starts to brown..........

    I like just about anything roasted. Toss in olive oil with some salt and pepper and roast at 400 until bits start to brown. Broccoli is especially good - I'd never thought to roast it until it was a middle step in a broccoli soup recipe I made last year. I was a little sad to blend it up!

    I also really like sauteed spinach with garlic and tomatoes.

    I love roasted brussel sprouts--with Extra virgin olive oil, black pepper, sea salt and garlic-YUM

    I'm pretty good about eating my veggies but the next ones on my list to try are Kale, and bok choy

    Bok Choy is yummy - I bet you've had it and just don't know it. Lots of chinese dishes use bok choy.

    Not a fan of brussel sprouts ..... perhaps I need to try them roasted.

    Parsnips! Haven't had these in awhile ..... (note to self) buy parsnips.

    Roasted veggies of any kind - asparagus, cauliflower, broccoli

    I just drizzle some EVOO on them and sprinkle them with a little bit of kosher salt and it's delicious!!!

    Oh also very into eggplant now too. I never thought I would like it but I do!!

    We eat Kale ALL the time....its so good! I sauté with coconut oil and onions and in a separate tiny pot I cook down balsamic vinegar, which will turn syrup like and have a sweeter flavor! Even my kids eat the kale with the reduced vinegar. Sometimes we use just kosher salt and grated cheese.... yummy

    My next adventure is to make Kale chips, but I want to use fresh Kale not prepackaged

    Curried cauliflower. Lightly steam the cauliflower and set aside. Saute chopped onions and fresh ginger. Add curry powder to taste and cook for a minute or two. Add the cauliflower and some raisins. Deelish!
