in a veggie rut

JLPT830

Do you ladies have any great veggie recipes?  DH will eat green beans, corn, peas, and peppers.  He'll eat broccoli with velveeta or in a casserole, mushrooms in a casserole, and carrots if they are cooked in something like stew or soup.  DS loves peas, green beans, and squash (he's allergic to carrots).  I feel like I make things the same way and I'm getting tired of it.  Any good recipes using the above veggies or any good ideas to try out some new veggies with my picky family???  TIA!!!

How about:

Artichoke with a dip

Carrot and Rutabega This is an english dish but you make it exactly like mashed potatoes... chop, boil, mash with salt, pepper, milk and butter... I havent come across a person who doesnt love it

asparagus cooked with olive oil and kosher salt

sweet potato fries

my sister makes a pea salad... its peas, chopped eggs and onions and mayo... its really good and the only thing I will eat with peas in it

zucchini and squash marinated in italian dressing and then sauteed

veggie tempura, just buy the mix, its usually in the asian aisle and its so crispy and light

I have a really easy (and really good) creamed corn casserole recipe.  I also found an amazing fresh green bean recipe (balsamic vinaigrette and goat cheese) that I just made for Easter.  Both were a hit with my family.  I thought the goat cheese would be a stretch for my Dad and FIL, but they really enjoyed it. 

If either sounds like something your family would enjoy, just let me know and I'd be happy to email you the recipes.
