Toddlers: 24 Months+

What veggies to you make most often

DH is (understandably) sick of broccoli and cauliflower. We've had it a lot lately. Like, constantly. For months.

What else do you make?

Last night I made calabacitas (a cheesy squash dish, the recipe is posted below).

Re: What veggies to you make most often

  • asparagaus, corn, peas, beans, brussell sprouts, beans..don't know if those count but w/e, sweet potatoes, carrots
  • Loading the player...
  • peas, carrots, or green beans.  Those are what DD seems to eat the best.  DH and I aren't big veggie eaters so I pretty much fix what I know DD will eat.

  • anything that will go in a salad, b/c my dd eats primarily salads and fruits now.

    peas are usually a big hit but are FADING!!!  WHY OH WHY!  I hate them.. but my kids loved them up until recently??? carrots (really good sliced like fries, drizzle olive oil, add a little salt and dill, and then broil them... taste a lot like sweet potato fries), sweet potatoes (but ds doesn't care for mashed potatoes in the least), broccoli (which is fading in popularity). I get a mixed veggie frozen bag b/c dd will pick out the peas and carrots to eat and ds will eat the corn and green beans.  makes it easy to decide on a veggie.  brussel sprouts broiled or pan seared... although fading in popularity. my kids are getting picky.  (sigh)

  • broccoli, asparagus, edemame (tech a protein), brussels sprouts, green beans, zucchini squash, summer sqaush, sometimes carrots, corn on the cobb in summer.
  • Carrots, corn, potatoes, yams and broccoli.
  • green beans and peas are our two fav in the house. Corn comes in a close 3rd.

  • Asparagus (she loves the tips) with butter, sea salt and lemon juice; peas (salt, pepper and onion powder); green beans; squash; zucchini (stir fry it in a bit of soy sauce and garlic)

  • peas and corn are almost the only veggies I can get DS to eat lately.
  • DS loves peas! We also eat potatoes, acorn squash, green beans, green salad, tomatoes with mozzarella cheese and balsamic vinegar, asparagus, and corn.

    Sometimes I will skip the veggies and we eat cut up apples, applesauce, grapes or other fruit.

  • Most often Carrots...  Or Broccoli.  I love Carrots raw, steamed with Parsley and butter, Candied (on special occasions).  We eat all veggies except Peas and brussel Sprouts.  I have a pea aversion after several SUmmer visitng my Father's homeland and having Mushy peas and peas with everything.
  • There are some yummy sounding veggie ideas on here!  SFL.  Also, for those of you that put squash, how do you prepare it?  I am clueless about squash!
