Veggie Ideas - need some new ones

What about courgette cut into pieces with pieces of potatoes cookes with tomatoes and bit of spice the one that you like, i love this receipt
can you eat eggs ?

Spinach is really good and its so easy to cook! you can even sauté it with just a little water instead of oil for less calories.
put it in an omelette with some nutritional yeast instead of cheese and you will be the happiest person in the world.

bok choy is really good in a stir fry, just cook it up with olive oil, fresh garlic and some sesame seeds, you can put it on top of some noodles too.

cooked carrots are good with almost anything and buying the whole raw carrots saves money, you can even eat them raw with hummus as a snack.

canned red beets are fast and easy

brussels sprouts and broccoli rabe are good choices too.

The more colorful the dish the better

When I don't have time to prepare a veggie filled dish I throw some spinach, greek yogurt, a banana, and raspberries in a blender. You can't taste the spinach, and it's extremely filling.

Sweet potatoes are heaven! A medium sized one is about 110 calories. Poke holes into them with a fork and then bake them for an hour at 400.

I also love dice onions and sautee them in a tablespoon of butter (worth the flavor!!) until they get really soft and start to brown, and then throw in a ton of spinach and keep that in the heat just until it starts to wilt a little and turns bright green. Adding garlic salt and pepper is the best to finish it off with! So yummy!

Do you like squash?
I like to take a julienne peeler and make "noodles" with it. Then saute with olive oil and garlic then top with whatever spaghetti sauce you like. I had this last night for dinner. Also it will keep me full longer than pasta.

How about cooked apples? I just cook mine with a little bit of water and a ton of cinnamon. We usually consider this a veggie side dish with dinner.

I roast most of my veggies instead of steaming, since I think it gives them a better flavor. So if you get tired of one method, try another. :happy:

*i think courgette is what aussies call squash or zucchini (?). aubergine is eggplant i believe.* also two things delicious roasted together.

zuchinni, artichokes, sweet potato, bok choy, celery root, sunchokes, parsnips are all tasty.

Differenent combinations sush as roasting, grilling sauteeing and steaming can help keep things new. And different combination. I like roasting bite-sized chunks of butternut squash and then combining with with sauteed kale.

Also, try lacinato/dinosaur kale (if you have not already). You can make salads out of it which softens the leaves without cooking and will keep and not wilt like regular lettuce would.

roast vegetables, brilliant - that's dinner sorted - thank you MFPeople

I have tons of veggie recipes on this Pinterest board: http://www.pinterest.com/infiniteearths/vegan/

I like to bake (microwave) a sweet potato and top it with crushed pineapple, red onions, and Sririacha. Also, do you like peppers? Try stuffing those with rice and steamed veg (spinach, broccoli, etc.).

Fennel-slice it thinly and make a salad with it, green apple slices, walnuts, and a viniagrette made with cider vinegar, grainy mustard, olive oil, and lemon or orange juice.

Celery root-makes a great tasting coleslaw with greek yogurt

Artichoke-great roasted with some garlic and pine nuts, sprinkling of parmasean cheese

Parsnip-makes a great mash

Butternut squash-another great mash or soup as a side

Kale and red cabbage- great sauteed together with olive oil and garlic

Mushrooms-stuffed with diced peppers, onions, and parmasean cheese

agree with the roasting, turned me from a veg hater to a lover.

Also, love mushrooms, or combo of mushrooms, onions and peppers....even roasted.

Roast some thick fennel slices and some yellow squash chunks (roast on separate trays so you can pull one if it's done quicker) until tender and browning (drizzle with oil beforehand) and then toss both together with a tad bit of feta, delish!

Green beans, also good roasted or sauteed....sometimes i add almonds and feta, sometimes i add garlic, sometimes i zest lemon over the top, etc....or do a sechuan style (look up recipe)...really really good!

A stir fry....sugar snap peas, bean sprouts, carrots, broccoli, onion, you name it...saute each veggie separately over a high heat just until done, still a bit crisp...then toss together with some sauce at the end (or fry in garlic oil from the beginning)

stuff a zuchinni or eggplant with anything you like, meat and rice, chopped mushrooms and veggies, stuffing like mix...

Stuffed portebellos....with cashews, lentils and rice just delish http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2010/11/08/health/20101108_thanksgiving.html?_r=0#Harvest-Stuffed_Portobello_Mushrooms

Make an au gratin with squash/zucchini

Roast carrots with lime and cumin and a drizzle of oil

A fresh salad type dish of veggies with corn and beans and onions and cilantro...quick vinaigrette with lime and honey

Brussels, shredded and sauteed with some balsamic, nuts and cranberries, etc...

Lots and lots of ways to eat veggies!!
