I need new dinner vegetable ideas

[sangria]

My husband says he’s sick of asparagus, green beans, Brussel sprouts, broccoli & cauliflower.



WTF else do people make with a dinner of grilled chicken? We are having roasted red potatoes as well if that helps.



I’m in a vegetable rut.

Roasted carrots

[lilac05]

Roasted veggies: whatever I have in the fridge, throw on a pan, drizzle olive oil & random seasoning, roast.

[stellas]

Edamame, snow peas, corn on the Cobb, cole slaw from a bag kit

[sallywalker]

Oh and summer squash!

[ZoeHart]

That seems like a nice variety to me already. Do you prepare them the same way every time? Could you mix that up?

[papie]

I do carrots and fennel.  I cut them in big chunks, with evoo, salt and pepper, a drizzle of maple syrup and a tiny bit of water.  I cover and cook for 45-60 minutes (can't remember, I just look) at about 400.  Or 375.  OMG I suck at giving recipes.  I make this twice a month, why can't I be more precise? lol
 

[cuccaro]

We do corn and roasted zucchini pretty often

[miniroller]

Salad. Romaine w/ lots of cucumbers & carrots. Light vinaigrette dressing.

[jinkies]

Side salad?

You think zucchini and summer squash and carrots all roasted together would be good? Yeah?

I don't know.  The carrots will not be done, or the zuchini and summer squash will be mushy.  

[papie]

Roasted beets with goat cheese

Roasted sliced zuchini and eggplant

Eggplant on the stovetop with tomatoes and onions

avocado and strawberry salad

Greek tomato salad

[sangria]

What is your greek tomato salad? I already know I'll love it.

I have roasted radishes on this weeks menu after Kevin suggested it a couple weeks back.

[mich1]

Roasted parsnips, carrots and onions?

I am in a similar rut, so bought beets this week. They're a mess to make, but different.

[lucky513]

sauteed chard or kale

I think that the zucchini and summer squash would be mush by the time the carrots are cooked.

Cucumber salad is a big hit in my house.

Sliced cucumbers, onion, a splash of vinegar, EVOO, dill weed, salt and pepper. If I have garlic i put minced garlic in it. I let it sit for a hour or two in the fridge.

Just your regular old greek salad? Fresh juicy tomatoes, red onion, evoo, salt and pepper, oregano.  You can add feta or kalamata olives if you want but it isn't mandatory.  The trick is to salt the tomatoes and let the juice run out a bit before adding all the other ingredients.  Then you get an amazing sauce to dip your crusty bread in.

We so broccoli and cauliflower a lot - but sometimes roasted, sometimes steamed. I also like the green beans w/almonds steam in bag that Green Giant makes plus it's easy.

Lots of different salads-my faves are Greek salad and I'll also do a southwest salad.

If we can grill, we'll do veggie kabobs with all colors of bell peppers and onion. Or corn on the cob.

[illgetthere]

Yellow squash and onion in Italian dressing on the stove or corn. We're simple

Edit: and broccoli and cheese

[auntie]

Alton Brown's Glazed Carrots are nice-

www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/glazed-carrots-recipe.html

Sometimes I do sauteed baby bok choy with a little sesame oil or broccoli rabe with garlic.

A lot of times I do a green salad of some kind instead of a cooked veggie.
