Roasting veggies is what we do! Had roasted carrot and sweet potatoes spears last night and LO chowed down. Tell me about your broccoli nuggets! She won't eat broccoli anymore...

@Meowkers: Broccoli nuggets?! Please share!

I zap them in the microwave and then toss them on her tray. she loves it and I do too cause its so easy!

@Meowkers:

I would roast them! You can roast sweet potatoes, carrots, squash, root vegetables (rutabaga, parsnips, turnips, etc)!

@Meowkers: I just ate our leftover veggies (not much, LO went to town) and I just microwaved them. Tasted great! I would toast zucchini all the time in the summer for our nanny in advance.

Have you looked at Weelicious (website and cookbook)? They have a lot of great recipes. My LOs loved the black bean cakes, cottage cheese pancakes, mini meatloafs (veggie heavy), spinach ricotta bites, and so many others.

These are tasty and really you can sub in whatever veggies you wanted.

For DS, we make him baby sushi to make all-in-one meals a lot. We smash sticky brown rice with minced bits of everything - avocado, all kinds of soft steamed veggies, scrambled eggs, bits of meat. When we're ready to eat, I top the mixture with a little mozzarella cheese and heat it up until the cheese melted. Then we mix it all up so that the cheese can act as a glue. We spread about a tablespoon of the mixture thinly out on pieces of toasted seaweed snacks, roll them up, and then cut them into little sushi bites with kitchen scissors. I make one batch of rice mix that can last for a few days. I just reheat with a little cheese on top each time I want to make it and roll up the little bites. All I need to add is a little fruit and a cup of milk and its a complete meal for DS.

We love roasted veggies! Sometimes I will do something like this: http://www.thewednesdaychef.com/the_wednesday_chef/2013/07/the-best-roasted-vegetables-ever.html
Other times I just roast a head of cauliflower or some carrots and potatoes.

LO loves zucchini diced small and sautéed in olive oil with a tiny bit of garlic salt.

He also loves green beans from a can (easy!) and broccoli steamed in the microwave.

Another vote for weelicious. Her eggplant parmesan sticks are really good.
