Writing when I should be asleep

[403]

Over dinner last night, I read Eat food. Stuff you like. As much as you want. by Michelle over at Fat Nutritionist, and it occurred to me that I want to like vegetables, not least because my body seems to ask for them on a semi-regular basis... but I don't know what to do with them. When I was a kid, veggies came from a can and were served as-is (which is to say, disgustingly). I don't have the experience to evaluate a veggie-centric recipe for whether or not I'll like it, and as a result it's proving difficult to bootstrap myself up to preparing meals with them as often as I'd like.

depending on what kind of veggies you like, either simply boiling them works or else use a recipe book.

my stepmum (a vegetarian cook) swears by the Moosewood cookbook - it's got some really scrumptious recipes that are filling, nutritious, fun and cheap.
