We've been grilling corn on the cob a lot this summer. This recipe is divine: <a href="http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2013/07/mexican-street-corn-elotes-recipe.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2013/07/mexican-street-corn-elotes-recipe.html</a></p> <p>We're also enjoying an apple salad recipe and a cold broccoli salad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-veggie-inspiration#post-2271414 Mon, 24 Aug 2015 08:54:34 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2271414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Carmelized green beans - toss fresh green beans with a little olive oil and saute on med-low until they start to blister. Toss with a little salt and sprinkle with toasted pine nuts (we leave out the pine nuts now because LO is allergic to nuts, but they are still yummy. )</p> <p>Roast carrots that have been tossed in olive oil and balsamic vinegar. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-veggie-inspiration#post-2271398 Mon, 24 Aug 2015 08:45:04 +0000 WinterBee 2271398@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Canoli: Looooveeeee summer grilling! We make all of our veggies on the BBQ. We've been eating; corn on the cob, asparagus, fresh beans, broccoli, and our fave which is a medley of mixed peppers and onions (I'll add broccoli to it as well sometimes) add a tblspn of oil, garlic, italian seasonings, black pepper.. mix it all together and grill- Yum!<br /> Also, if you don't have a veggie pan for your BBQ, get one! It makes it sooo easy. </p> [attach=6058/15/ntla74.400x177.-_1.JPG] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-veggie-inspiration#post-2271383 Mon, 24 Aug 2015 08:39:52 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2271383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom just did some cut up zucchini and yellow squash saute in olive oil and top with pine nuts. It was pretty good! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-veggie-inspiration#post-2271382 Mon, 24 Aug 2015 08:37:37 +0000 erinbaderin 2271382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm unhealthily obsessed with this recipe, I make it constantly: <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/oven-roasted-broccoli-recipe.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/oven-roasted-broccoli-recipe.html</a> It's SO good, I'll seriously eat a half a head of broccoli in one sitting.</p> <p>I also like to roast cauliflower in garlic olive oil and salt. </p> <p>Sweet potato or butternut (or acorn) squash "fries" are popular in my house. Tomato and bocconccini with balsamic is a good go-to (although I'll just eat a plain tomato with salt happily). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-veggie-inspiration#post-2271179 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 21:09:41 +0000 regberadaisy 2271179@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do a lot of roasted cauliflower / broccoli, sauté green beans, peas, Edemame, "roasted" carrots.<br /> When we have time to get to the Asian mart then Chinese broccoli, baby bok Choy are house favorites. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-veggie-inspiration#post-2271171 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 20:53:03 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2271171@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been liking cauliflower lately! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-veggie-inspiration#post-2271170 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 20:52:56 +0000 lady grey 2271170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right now we are going a lot of corn and asparagus on the grill. I also like a quick greek salad in the summer- just chopped tomatoes &amp; cucumbers, a little sliced onion, some feta and olives, olive oil and vinegar dressing. I am also really into chop/cobb salads right now! </p> <p>In colder months I also love roasting veggies- favs are broccoli, cauliflower and butternut squash. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-veggie-inspiration#post-2271167 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 20:50:23 +0000 BSB 2271167@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love roasted cauliflower or roasted Brussels sprouts (I know it's gross when I was a kid but my mom boiled it but roasting it makes all the difference). </p> <p>Oh, green beans or corn on the cob? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-veggie-inspiration#post-2271140 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 20:32:09 +0000 Mrs. Microscope 2271140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Grilled or oven baked zucchini spears with lemon and garlic olive oil, sprinkled with parmesan! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-veggie-inspiration#post-2271131 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 20:21:24 +0000 Canoli 2271131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jhd: I usually roast carrots, squash and sweet potatoes and I'll steam broccoli but even my little guy is getting sick of carrots. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-veggie-inspiration#post-2271125 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 20:13:39 +0000 jhd 2271125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Canoli: maybe not summer-y but have you tried roasting veggies?

Just those veggies, some red onion, red wine vinegar and a little olive oil and pepper. Toss with with some feta if you're so inclined! Super easy and tasty :) Better if you let it marinate a little while. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-veggie-inspiration#post-2271098 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 19:46:28 +0000 Canoli 2271098@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like I make the same veggies over and over again and it's getting boring.
