Both kids are obsessed with peas lately. They will eat an entire bag of frozen peas for dinner (cooked!). Other vegetables they love include: cucumbers (their all time favorite and always has been for both of them), broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, corn, and sweet potato.
I've been trying to get them into carrots with no avail, and I always sneak mushrooms and onions into tomato pasta sauce and sauteed ground beef.
What are your LO's favorite veggies?

Asparagus is her favorite. She also likes peas and carrots. And corn and white potatoes but I don't usually count that as veggie. So far she does not like broccoli or cauliflower or sweet potato. I can't even get her to put cucumber in her mouth lol.

Peas and carrots, separate or together (he prefers them together, though).

Le Sueur Peas are the only veggies we can get her to eat. I have to feed them too her as well. So annoying. A couple Sunday's ago I got her to eat broccoli and then she threw it up.
Now she will eat any and all veggies if in a pouch.

Carrots but only cooked, peas, broccoli dunked in ketchup, cucumbers in ranch, corn... Sweet potatoes and green beans are hit or miss. He eat literally any fruit in mass quantity.

@Smurfette: oh yes he still loves all fruit veggie combo pouches.

her lunch platter today is mainly her fave veggies - cucumber, a whole carrot (not allowed to cut it!!), cherry tomatoes and red capsicum. along with some cheese, ham and crackers. sometimes she won't even share her veggies with me, or if I'm having cucumber she will run over and pinch it off me!

Cucumbers, sweet potatoes, corn, and peas (if they're in chicken pot pie! Probably because of the sauce). Occasionally he will eat carrots but he's not a huge fan of them.

@Smurfette: Ditto, DS is 2 and still loves those fruit/veggie pouches. I buy a lot of the Happy Tot ones and mainly get the ones with Kale in it since he doesn't eat many greens at all.

Soft carrot coins simmered in well seasoned chicken broth. Baby zucchini cooked the same way. Hot and cold on broccoli and cauliflower. We end up mincing a lot of veggies into soups and porridges so he gets an okay amount but he's finicky in general - he likes something one day and hates it the next.

Broccoli and spinach. They love zucchini pancakes but will not eat just plain cooked/roasted zucchini by itself.

Some of these are only loosely vegetables, but... Broccoli, carrots, corn, potatoes, seaweed, celery (in soup only).

Bell peppers, green beans, cooked carrots, zucchini, broccoli, mushrooms.

cucumbers and zucchini are her favorite now, and spinach/lettuce (salad) otherwise she's not much of a veggie fan so I have to sneak in tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, ect. into sauces.

Bennett will try any vegetable if asked, but that means that he puts it in his mouth, bites once, and spits it out. It's super frustrating. The only things he'll eat reliably are sweet potatoes, butternut squash, and well-cooked celery. Oh, and tomato sauce, which hardly counts but I'm taking it as a victory. He used to eat peas but now just gets excited, yells "Ball!" and throws them. Yesterday he took a bite of cucumber and didn't spit it out and we celebrated like he'd won a Nobel prize. Anything in a pouch, though, is fine.

I'm really jealous of everyone's kids' veggie likes! LO will only eat cooked carrots and corn on the cob on occasion. He's eaten broccoli before, but it usually just sits on his plate.

Ummm....french fries. But seriously, my kid hates all vegetables. It's a battle.

Green beans, peas, seaweed, tomatoes. He asks for them. He tolerates corn, carrots, zucchini.

LO’s top favorites are broccoli (she would eat it every day!), mushrooms, sweet peppers and tomatoes.
She also likes grilled/cooked onions, carrots, cucumber, celery, spinach, sweet potato, white potato, peas and green beans (canned – blech!)

She loves broccoli. She also really likes baby corn, carrots, and sweet potato (instead of Mr. Potato Head she calls him Sweet Potato Head).

Zucchini is his #1 veggie right now but he also loves carrots and peas and eats a variety of other veggies too.

Cherry tomatoes! That's one he'll consistently eat. Broccoli, forget about it. Everything else is hit or miss. 2 weeks ago he devoured some sauteed zucchini, yellow squash, and mushrooms. Last week he acted like it was the worst thing I could put in front of him. Toddlers.
