What's your favorite veggie? And how do you like to eat it?
Zucchini is my absolute favorite. I like to slice it up and sauté in a pan with evoo & garlic salt from Trader Joe's.
We are in a food rut over here & need to eat more veggies. I'm going to try roasting cauliflower in the oven for the first time this week.

@Mrs. Bee: I love cucumbers too. And DH will eat them if I get him some hummus for dipping!

Hmmm I would say I eat carrots most often but love cucumbers and bell peppers with hummus! And sweet potatoes is close, I'm obsessed with them this pregnancy!

I think brussel sprouts...I like them sautéed in a little olive oil with bits of ham. I also really like zucchini, green beans, artichokes, and broccoli!

I am hating on most veggies right now (the horror) but i lean on broccoli most of the time 
I just like it so much! Especially roasted
I also just like a cold, crisp salad with all kinds of veggies in it. I like most veggies, though, save eggplant.

I love most veggies, except bell peppers.. My absolute favorite are potatoes (if you can count that as a veggie.)

It's probably a tie between asparagus and green beans - roasted in the oven with salt, pepper, and garlic!

@raspberries: oooo i forgot about asparagus. I love it in the summer
eggplant / 11716 posts
Pumpkin. In pie. =)
But if I have to pick a "healthy" way to eat a veggie (as in, not in pie form), I guess I would pick sautéed zucchini and summer squash with spices. Or I would pick curried Chinese eggplant.
Really, curried any vegetable is generally better than the plain vegetable to me.

I like most "normal" veggies like carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, peppers, beans, etc... the only things I can think of that I'm not a huge fan of is zucchini and squash but even they are growing on me since I've prepared them myself as an adult. We never really ate them growing up which is why I think I'm not drawn to them. Love brussel sprouts though!

@blackbird: I have never roasted broccoli before either. I should try that too! Salad made me so sick while pregnant. It was sad! 
@78h2o: Brussels sprouts are probably the only veggie I don't like. Although my mom roasted some at thanksgiving and they were ok like that.
Basically it sounds like I need to experiment with roasting all the vegetables!

I'm not a big veggie person We eat corn (which isn't a veggie, I know), green beans and salad. I use to eat peas. Do sweet potatoes count? Are those a veggie?

@LindsayInNY: sweet potatoes are good for you! I need to use them more often instead of regular baked potatoes. No idea if they are technically a veggie or not

@blackbird: I saw some asparagus while grocery shopping this past weekend and it was ridiculously expensive (probably because it's ridiculously out of season) but I had to stop myself from buying it anyway. Ready for spring already!

@jhd: I just roasted cauliflower with olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic last night. It was really good.
Broccoli and sauteed spinach are a tie for me.

I like all veggies, some only cooked though.
I think the only thing that I really don't care for is endive.

@LindsayInNY: oh that's a bummer. I often don't fix things I like if it's only me eating them. Will he eat sweet potato fries? I get them sometimes and tell myself they must be healthier than regular frozen fries!!

@Smurfette: good to know! I'm excited to try it. My mom makes awesome cauliflower and cheese but this would be a much healthier option!

@jhd: Not really. He's nuts. How can you not like sweet potato fries?!? Or mashed with goodness on them?!?

@Anagram: Pumpkin pie has been my biggest pregnancy craving! I have bought two whole pies already, just for DH and myself!

I love string beans, broccoli and zucchini the best. I love roasting or sauteing veggies with a little olive oil and garlic!
