Suggestions for a veggie hater?

I cook them in a saute pan occassionally and give them a little crisp. Corn, carrots, peas and beans mixed together with a little olive oil and some seasoning. I cook them until they are a little crispy and they're delicious

why not cut out the salt when you cook the corn and green beans then?

Eat more fruit instead, and try different veg that you have not had before. Prepare things in a different way and also try things like putting minced carrot in with you mince in a bolognese, swede and parsnip taste great roasted and also in stews. Baked onions are lovely and sweet.

I would try and eat more salad if you like it, and maybe grated carrot with that? peppers and tomatoes in an omelet?

You've got a good start!

Do you have a stick blender? try carrot soup (boil the carrots in water, and hit 'em with a stick blender-- add some curry or italian seasoning if those things turn you on. If you can eat that, then try doing the same thing to cauliflower.

Can you eat casserole-type stuff (lasagna, for example? Try experimenting with meat-free ingredients rather than the traditional rice- and ground beef variety.

And be careful about the corn! You should really be counting it as a grain and not a vegetable because it's a grass seed and because the carb content is so high!

I don't tolerate veggies very well, but I do like em (as long as they aren't slimey). But I really found that I can replace Ranch with other things (I LOVE RANCH). I like the Weight watchers or Skinny cow cheese spread on celery (especially the peppercorn one), steam the baby carrots a little so they are not quite so crunchy, and sprinkle a little splenda on them and a few squirts of the I can't believe its not butter spray, cucumbers with a little plain yogurt are yummy... you might want to just try a different vegetable a week. When you go to the store, commit to 1 new kind of vegetable you haven't tried yet. Find a recipe or eat it raw/lightly steamed.... If you don't like it no harm no foul, if you do, well then you have a new option. Radishes are good with the cheese spreads too...Use the dark lettuce to wrap your food in, or better yet spinach leaves. You get used to that if you start adding spinach leaves to your mixed greens in your salad, pretty soon, you can adjust to where there is more spinach than regular lettuce and that's a great veggie boost.

Grilled veggies are so good. I like my veggies to still have a crunch to them but grilling makes them so tender. But NOT mush.

I TOTALLY agree!! Some zucchini, sliced lengthwise and tossed in salt, pepper and olive oil then thrown on the grill... SO yum!! Same with eggplant.

If you don't like them raw (me either), sauteed or stir fry (very little oil, use some broth) them. Most my vegi are cooked and they are delicious. Cut down salt for any food you prepare, avoid those in can.

I used to have the same problem. I liked veggies, but it was a love/hate relationship (although I always LOVED green veggies; brocolli, asparagus, spinach, etc). I personally LOVE them sauted in a little olive oil with garlic...mmm.

I used to HATE most "salad" veggies; tomatoes, onions (could only have them diced into tiny pieces cooked w/ something), cucumbers, etc. But after going vegetarian-go figure, I found that after a few months, I started to like these vegetables. So my only other advice would be to keep reintroducing yourself to the veggies you don't love, you may end up liking them someday!

Have you tried raw sugar snap peas? They are delicious, crunchy and a little sweet!!! When I first got into them, I jokingly called them my "french fries," not that they taste anything like them, but I can easliy munch down a whole bag if I'm not paying attention. They're kind of like yummier green beans. What's better than a satisfying, don't need to worry if you get carried away snack? They would probably be good w/ PB too.

veggie steamers are quick & low sodium )

Well, I suppose I don't hate vegetables, but I don't enjoy them that much. Some of them will make me vomit (e.g. Mushrooms, Cauliflower, Asparagus and Broccoli). Basically, the ones I can stand are Corn, Green Beans, Carrots, Celery, Cucumbers and crispy Lettuce. Problem is the corn and green beans are always prepared too salty and the others I tend to need some ranch or peanut butter to enjoy raw.

I'd like to eat a bit cleaner and reduce sodium. This is what I'm up against. Any suggestions for supplementing my lack of vegetables? Sure I can make some soup and try and add the veggies I like to other dishes but I'm trying to be pragmatic. I'm not going to all of a sudden become a veggie lover.

Thanks for any suggestions.

I add finely diced zucchini, onion and mushrooms to my ground meat when I make spaghetti, stroganoff or tacos. Just brown it up and add the sauce. It's very camouflaged and you get your veggies in
