    For snacking, raw carrot and celery sticks sprinkled with lime juice! I just tried this yesterday and it's tasty!

    I've become a lover of kale, cooked or raw in a salad with dried cranberries and slivered almonds. But I have yet to find a vegetable that doesn't taste absolutely delicious tossed in a little olive oil and salt and pepper and roasted in the oven for half an hour.

    I like lots of veggies, my favorite way of cooking veggies (particularly root veggies) is:

    1. Preheat the oven to 375*
    2. Cut the veggies into roughly equal sizes
    3. Place on baking sheet
    4. Season with Herbs De Provence
    5. Drizzle with olive oil
    6. Mix together to coat the veggies with the herbs and olive oil
    7. Stick them in the oven and cook until your desired consistency (I like them browned on the outside and smooth on the inside)

    Yellow squash slices sauteed with onion garlic and mushrooms, add slivered almonds and low fat blue cheese crumbles. Mmm

    Homemade sweet potato fries, bakes and dipped in honey mustard.

    Cauliflower mash with some parmesan, garlic, and a touch of butter.

    Try wonton wraps filled with some shredded cheese and steamed broccoli.

    I get super creative with my veggies- since I eat so much of them, I never want to get bored with them!

    steamed broccoli with garlic salt! it's really delicious.
    However, I am a sucker for most veggies. The only one I can't really get into is celery.

    I recently just got back into celery. It's sort of a pointless piece of food, tastewise, right? But it serves really well as a hummus delivery system. So I've been eating a lot of celery nd hummus lately.

    I love all veggies - steamed, grilled, boiled - whatever works.

    Lately I have loved roasted bell peppers. Lately I've been baking them, then once they're charred you can pull them from the oven, stick them in a container and seal it for 15 minutes or so. Let the steam loosen up the skin. Remove the skin, and voila! I usually have it with chicken, spinach, tomatoes, olive oil and pepper. Yum!

    Sweat peas!!!! I just have them steamed... Also, steamed brocolli and cauliflower are good... and steamed carrots!! You could put spinach on your sandwhiches instead of lettuce... And i even blend them into my protein shakes! Can't even taste the spinach but you still get the nutrients! :)
