fennel, tomatoes, carrots, onions, corn. I admit I’m not a dark green leafy vegtable eater. I prefer fruits. Oddily enough my husband loves vegetables, and not so much fruit. But I am making smoothies and that seems to work for him. I am trying to add more spinach and kale into my diet, but it doesn’t always thrill me. I do like broccoli though.

asparagus, cauliflower, cucumbers, corn and orange peppers—I can’t wait to go home for summer so I can eat these veggies everyday because I don’t have the luxury of eating these everyday at college

butter cup quash, spinich, beets, potatoes, asparagus – the only veggie i’ve every tried that i don’t like is lima beans, which really isn’t a veggie anyway :-) its a legume. in the summer i really enjoy fresh tomatoes and cucumbers (the pickling kind) sliced and sprinkled lightly with salt and pepper – yummy!

Asparagus, green beans, all varieties of green and hot peppers, freshly picked farmer’s market sweet corn, squash, and eggplant. I have always been a veggie lover! When I was a little girl my older brothers and sister used to pass their vegetables down the table to me and I would gobble them up. I love fresh salads, steamed mixed veggies, and vegetable soups.

I love spinach, cooked or raw in salads, I love green beans, steamed or stir fried with other vegetables, like red/yellow bell pwppers, red onion, fresh garlic. I love broccoli steamed or raw, and have for the first time this summer starting cooking asparagus in salt free chicken broth, they were delicious with a dressing of ginger and sesame.

There are so many to choose from. I’d have to list brussel sprouts, broccoli, peas, carrots, and zuchini. Alas, I’m the only one in my family who likes brussel sprouts so it is a treat for me to get to eat them. I got my boys interested in starting a vegetable garden this year and I hope it will strengthen their love of veggies. We are trying to grow tomatoes, squash, bell peppers, onions, and melons.

Brussel Srpouts, Spinache, Cucumbers, Asparagus, Brocolli. I love vegetables but these are my top favorites. I avoid corn becuase I heard it was not good for your digestive track. I have beenw anting to start a vegetable garden as well but we are on rental property.
