    Sorry can't choose just one, l love most veggies. I don't eat peppers ( except for hot peppers once in a while, regular ones disagree with me) and I'm not a fan of okra or brussel sprouts. Otherwise I love all veg.

    Oven roasted: Eggplant slices, fennel, red onion, zucchini, beets, sweet potatoes
    Steamed and drizzled with lemon: broccoli, green beans
    Stewed with tomatoes: eggplant, green beans, squash
    Cooked in lemonny sauce: artichoke hearts, squash, celery

    I,m sure there are more

    I just can't choose a favorite. There's just too much good in the world of veg. :drinker:

    DO NOT LIKE - eggplant, okra, parsnips

    Secret on eggplant that I learned in Italy (I didn't like it before then either). You slice it up, place it on a plate covered with salt, cover it with salt until you can't see the slices. Keep it like this for over an hour. When you wash it off it will have lost much of it's water and will seem sort of dry. Now dice it up with some fresh garlic and pan stir fry in about a tablespoon of oil. Add some fresh tomatoes also diced up and whatever other veggie you like (red/orange/yellow peppers, zucchini, yellow squash, sweet onion) and it make the best sauce for a baked potato, to mix with fresh pasta, to pour over couscous, to eat with quinoa, etc... You will for sure see how good it is. The trick is to take out the bitterness with the salt. Enjoy!

    Lightly steamed Brussels sprouts served plain or with choice of mustard.
    Steamed sliced beets with a little salt.
    Asparagus sautéed in a little coconut oil with garlic, and lemon juice to finish.
    Baked sweet potatoes or yams with jackets.
    Eggplant in a casserole with tomatoes, green peppers, onions, butternut squash baked without liquid, optional cheese topping at end of baking. Mmm, mmm!

    Favorite veggie is definitely green beans. Grilled or pan cooked. Brussels sprouts are a close second though, baked with shallot and bacon. NOMM! :smile:
