I have an obsession with mushrooms and asparagus, I want to put them on or in just about everything!
I like pretty much all produce. Tooooo yummy! The last few weeks I've had a bag of sweet pepper, cucumber, radish, and tomato in my lunch every day. Except today when I forgot my lunch.
CD 974 (actual time CD40, finished progesterone 2 days ago, this is really pissing me off. No cramps, no sore boobs, no indications whatsoever that AF might show up soon)
Mashed cauliflower, mashed sweet potatoes, grilled asparagus, raw broccoli with ranch. IDK if garlic counts as a veg but I put it in everything.
TTC #2 since 1/1/13
Favorite vegetable: potatoes, could eat those every freaking night. My favorite preparation though is cubed, tossed in a little bit of olive oil with seasoning (onion, garlic, mustard powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper). Throw that in oven at 425-450 for about 20-25 minutes (convection- longer for conventional) and bam! Yummo!!!
