  • What are your favorite veggies?

    I'm halfway through Induction but want to fantasize a bit about what's to come.

    I like the simple ones like steamed broccoli, cauliflower, or brussel sprouts with butter or cheese! And my favorite breakfast is a mushroom omelette.

      Just checking here... you are eating vegetables, aren't you?

      My favorites. Eggplant, mushrooms, bell peppers, green beans, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, green beans, garlic, zucchini, plus a lot of leafy vegetables like spinach, watercress, arugula... The truth is, there is no vegetable I don't like. I can't eat pumpkin and celery root, but except these two I seem to fine with all the ones I tried until now.

            I've found a way to make a variety of veggies that my whole family likes. Just use an equal amount of butter and olive oil in a saute pan and once hot, throw in the veggies. Some of my favorites are brussel sprouts, asparagus, or cauliflower (or even a mix). Takes about 10 minutes and they are delicious!

            Does anyone else find how wonderful veggies taste now that the "sugar-haze" is gone?

                  You must be from below the Mason-Dixon Line. I now like all my veggies barely cooked EXCEPT my green beans--gotta be cooked to death with bacon or ham.

                      I had some onion soup in Paris at a fairly expensive restaurant. It was dark brown and black, and I'm thinking it was gonna be disgusting. However, it was probably the best meal I've had in my life.
                      What I do:
                      Elliptical gym machine 1 hr Tue-Sun
                      At 320, switch to cycling on my Trek 500
                      2 filtered containers water/day
                      Daily salads/veggies


                      Goals:

                      Stop needing High Blood Pressure meds - DONE!
                      Workout in a XXXL shirt
                      - DONE!
                      Workout in a XXL shirt
                      Workout in a XL shirt
                      270 on the scales

                        Yup! I'm from Maryland. I like those beans tender: I don't like them crunching or squeaking when I eat them. lol On the other hand, I like snow peas and sugar snap peas on the crunchy side or raw.
