Okra! I learned how to make Bhindi Masala and I'm hooked. I'd never had okra before! It's so healthy too with just spices and a little oil.0

I have never been a vegetable eater (other than green beans) up until January of this year. My favorite is eggplant - the eggplant parmesan II from allrecipes is awesome; I use half the bread crumbs, bake it for 7 minutes each side (I first do the sweating process on the eggplant); I use a mixture of 2% and fat free mozzarella with 1/4 cup of real mozzarella. It's fantastic (I actually gave it away to three different people last time I made it). My other new-found item is herbed spaghetti squash. It's like "free food"!0

raw baby or crinkle cut carrots and hummus
EDIT
If I don't have hummus a dollop of Scorned Woman hot sauce. . .0 -
Sauteed Brussel Sprouts. I wouldn't touch them until someone told me to make them this way.
I slice them up thin (like cole slaw), then drizzle about 2 tsp of olive oil in a pan. Cook them up with some sea salt & pepper until they are brown at the edges.
SO GOOD!!! The house smells bad, but the sauteeing makes them taste a bit sweet.
Also love roasted asparagus and I never thought I'd like that.0 -
im loving all these ideas!!! I make a kale and linguica soup with potatoes, onions and red pepper - my family LOVES it! Parmesean eggplant is something i've always wanted to try! :drinker:0

Green beans used to be my favorite, now it's spinach. I love to sauté it with mushrooms and garlic.
I used to hate all peppers. Now I love red & yellow peppers. Still hate the green ones though.0 -
Cauliflower! I parboil some cauliflower and then throw it in the oven with chopped garlic, salt & pepper, lemon juice, lemon zest, chopped black olives and a little bit of feta (parmesan works too). It is really good with roasted garlic too if you have time to make that beforehand and use it. You can omit the salt if you need to. I could eat this everyday.0

That soup sound good!
Eggplant Parmesan is very versatile and pretty easy. You can add meat or not, change the cheese, add other veggies, whatever you wantThis is my first attempt in the crock pot though. . . we'll see how it turns out.

I've got Eggplant "parmesan" with Feta in the crock pot right now!0

My favorite thing is roasted cauliflower! I used to hate cauliflower as a child/young adult and now I love it.
One head of organic cauliflower trimmed and cut into pieces
Olive oil or black truffle oil
Sea salt or any corse salt
Pepper
Garlic (peeled whole cloves or chopped)
Carrots, peeled and roughly chopped)
Parmesan cheese or Veggie cheese (I use soy sprinkles)
Preheat over to 400
Line baking sheet with foil
Spray baking sheet with Pam
Lightly coat cauliflower, carrots, and garlic in olive oil (keep track of how much you are using and use sparingly, you don't need a whole lot!)
Roast for 15 minutes or until veggies are soft and brown
Sprinkle with salt, pepper and cheese to taste
My favorite lunch which I had today also has a lot of veggies:
Whole wheat tortilla
2 Tbsp Hummus
Carrot sticks (thin strips)
Pepper strips (thin strips)
Lettuce
a few onion pieces
black olives
1/4 avacado with sea salt
Put all those items in a tortilla and it is really good. Approx 250 - 300 calories depending on your tortilla, hummus and avacado!0 -
Sweet potato pie - thin layer of sweet potatoes on the bottom of the dish, then a heap of spinach, then sprinkle feta all over it. Pour over some creme fraiche with garlic in before adding the final layer of sweet potato. Cook for about 40ish minutes
Also, slices of grilled aubergine topped with tomatoes and mozarella. It's like a healthy pizza slice0 -
