    Roasting helps, but they still taste like veggies

    Slowly introduce more of them into your diet, put them in heavily flavoured foods like curry or chilli or blend them into heavily flavoured soups and smoothies. I can't help too much though because I love love love veggies, like basically every single one! But I used to hate them when I was younger..

    You cannot hate all vegies. There is so many different types, tastes, textures and preparation methods.... It's not like they all taste like boiled brussel sprouts.

    Stop telling yourself you don't like them. Try different ones in different ways.

    I eat most of my vegetables raw in a salad but it does get boring eating salads all the time. I discovered I like cauliflower so I've been adding that to different dishes. I found that if I eat veggie in casseroles or with melted cheese I get used to the taste/texture and and I can add more and more vegetables slowly. I'm still not a big fan but I'm learning. Oh and I'll eat roasted garlic all by itself... Don't plan on kissing anyone any time soon tho if you try that lol

    Try lots of different kinds!

    Also, you can hide them. I love veggies, but for breakfast I will make this egg and toast thing where I butter toast, do a over easy egg with cheese on top, but in-between I have sautéed mushrooms and spinach. I seriously can't taste them most of the time.

    Blend them into things, I find spinach an especially nice one to just throw into anything, sure the colour becomes pretty weird but you can't taste it. I'll usually throw a handful in a smoothie

    I like trying different dressings. One of my favorites is chipotle ranch dressing and a second in a raspberry vinaigrette. But same with what these guys are saying. If you roast them is a little bit of parmesan or even garlic salt it makes it taste better. Smoothies are also good. I like making a carrot, mango, orange smoothie. The texture is less smooth but the taste is there.

    What vegetables ARE you eating?

    This is probably a silly question but do you need to eat vegetables?

    OP A lot of people are drinking smoothies with all kinds of ingredients. If you want to eat some veggies I believe you could find some you could tolerate.

    I love fresh vegetables in a good soup. I use beef broth, garlic, cabbage, onion, zucchini, carrots, kidney beans, tomatoes, basil, oregano, pepper, and sea salt.

    I have a great veggie lasagna recipe. The veggies are roasted, and once you layer them in pasta and smother in cheese, you can't really tell. Although I like most veg, so take that for what it's worth.

    ^what she said. I don't like veggies. Well most of them anyways. I'll eat green beans, potatoes, and corn, thats about it. You don't need to eat 'healthy' to lose weight.

    Don't eat vegetables if you don't want.

    Try them in different ways and if you still don't like them don't eat them. There are some I don't like, and some that don't agree with my digestion, and some that must be cooked or roasted and seasoned, but life is too short to eat things you don't like. I'm sure glad I like some because I think it's hard to get fiber otherwise, and I like to fill up with veggies in soup or salad, with meat and carbs - yum! I guess you should find a good fiber supplement and some good vitamins.
