    I love cauliflower mashed with a little of the hot water from when you boil the cauliflower, a little butter/margarine whatever your caloric intake permits, and seasoning of your choice. Good ol' fashioned S&P is always good.

    Green beans steamed with balsamic and a touch of salt.

    Asparagus coated in olive oil and grilled with seasoning.

    Broccoli steamed with salt and lemon juice.

    Stir fry's with aparagus, red bell pepper, and onion with a little splash of soy sauce.

    Summer veggies are a different story but it's winter so I'll leave it at that. :)

    I think I'm gonna go eat some veggie now!

    :love: :love: i luff almost all of them!

    current top five would be
    - black kale ( = dinosaur kale = lacinato kale = cavelo nero) - you can eat this variety raw in salad (see *) or make kale chips
    - spinach (love it sauteed w/ garlic + olive oil w/ a bit of lemon juice)
    - beets (roast them, add them to salads)
    - brussels sprouts (roasted, or pan sauteed with scallions, then add lime juice!)
    - string beans (blanched, add to a salad w/ dill, cherry tomatoes and almond -or- oven roasted w/ cumin!)

    I forgot about fried okra...OMG heaven!

    I haven't had those lately, but on the occasion I do indulge in them.

    I also like them cooked steamed along with steamed fish or in soup.

    Onions - sauteed. Yummmmm...

    Mushrooms - see above!

    It's so much easier to list the ones I DON'T like.... (so, those are: sweet potatoes, cooked carrots, okra, eggplant that isn't grilled or breaded, rutabegas, kohlrabi, and creamed pearl onions)

    My favourite is probably broccoli or potato but I almost never eat them. What I eat the most: spinach, cucumbers and carrots. I eat a ton of spinach lately, and just found a better way to get my fix by mixing it with banana for a smoothie(you don't taste the spinach, but get all your essential vitamins from the spinach).
