Your favorite vegetables

[B_Hickboy]

Nope. A red bell pepper is simply one that's ripe. The pepper stages from green to yellow to orange to red. They're all the same pepper. Greens are hard and not so flavorful or as nutritious.

Don't feel too bad. I thought of Terry Schiavo too.

Jason, DO!

Most of my favourites are green.

Broccoli, Peas (frozen, sugar-snap or mange tout), Spinach, Savoy Cabbage, spring greens (which are turnip tops, I think, though I don't like turnips themselves), mountain greens (in Greece, a wild spinach), Asparagus (apparently everyone's pee smells funny after eating it, but some of us can't smell the methyl mercaptan responsible for that because of our genetics - I can), brussels sprouts (thanks for the recipes, folks!) even my bell peppers - I prefer green to red or yellow - especially when fried with onions and mushrooms for a quiche or omlette. Oh, and Artichoke - fiddly to eat, nibbling the base of the leaves before you get to the heart, but worth it.

I only found out I like roasted parsnips last winter. I've just heard of winter vegetables (parsnips, carrots, red onions, potatoes) roasted with gorgonzola cheese! Suppose I'll have to wait to sample that. And then there's roasted yam...

Jason, DO!

I can't because he thought only of one. I couldn't decide if I liked Terry Schiavo, Karen Ann Quindland, or Sunny von Bulow better.

is it stupid that i luv red bell peppers

but i HATE green bell peppers on or in anything?

Green bell peppers are unripe red bell peppers. They (green ones) give me indigestion so I avoid them.

I like almost all vegetables. Being vegetarian, I have to!

Parsnips are wonderful. Try them with apples and nutmeg baked with some butter and brown sugar with a dash of apple cider vinegar.

Pickled beets are my favourite, followed by steamed or creamed spinach.

I agree - green peppers don't agree with me either. They make my stomach churn with excess acid and make me upchuck. And asparagus...it makes your pee smell pungent - not a favorite of mine - I only like it grilled.
