As much as I love em, I find I sometimes get in a veggie "rut" when deciding what to buy each week...what is your favorite?

    That's tough to decide on one. I would say onions, but here are some of my other favorites:

    Asparagus
    Baby spinach
    Cucumber
    Brussels Sprouts (Yes indeed)
    Corn
    Peas
    Bok Choy
    Broccoli

    Edit: Also, green beans. Gawd, in season green beans are heavenly.

    As you can see, I mostly like green things, lol.

    Depends really, I like pretty much all veg and really enjoy the seasonality aspect. Right now the asparagus farm close to me will be open soon. He imports workers for about a month, then the season is done. Fiddleheads are now in season, and always get my fill, the season is litterally only weeks for the good ones, which I go and get in the forest that I can see from my yard . Zucchini blossoms coming, going to fill those flowers, yum, garlic scapes soon and will be making my yearly pesto with it. So many vegetables and little time. :smile:

    I usually like to buy these because they are quick and easy and give me some variety.

    As far as fresh vegetables go, I like raw green beans, yellow squash, zucchini

    Grilled asparagus is also really good but I only buy asparagus when it is on sale.

    I love asparagus, but it's too expensive to have often.
    I mostly eat brocolli, cauliflower, parsnips and carrots

    Potatoes, yup.

    Then radishes, spinach, asparagus, broccoli, brussel sprouts, guess tomatoes aren't technically a veggie, but I love them, and peppers of all sorts.
