The only asparagus or green beans I ever had growing up were canned, which doesn't even count. I thought I hated green beans until I started cooking them myself! Actually, there are a lot of vegetables I didn't know were delicious if they weren't cooked to mush. :(

Well, honestly, you could smear hummus on a piece of cardboard and I'd eat it. :) I usually grate carrots and put them in fried rice or couscous, that way I can hide them from myself better. I do love carrot cake, however. I'd consider that the best use of a bunch of carrots!

Wow, until you said you were from Texas, I thought you were me! (Georgia peach here) I also am blessed with a child who loves roasted cauliflower, and who is growing okra because it's his favorite vegetable. I can't say he likes everything yet; he still doesn't love cabbage, but he eats far healthier than I did at…
