i made stir fry the other weekend and ate the leftovers for a few days it was ok, but kind of bland
and v8 is sooo yucky 10/25/2008 5:12:18 PM |

if stir fry is bland it is your fault
use lots of onions, garlic and ginger 10/25/2008 5:24:37 PM |

i do this a lot
cut up a red bell, orange bell, yellow bell, portabellos, red onion
mix up with some olive oil, put in a baking sheet
sprinkle rosemary and other spices you like on top
roast in the oven
voila... you can reheat the leftovers for a few days

if you're doing what pilgrimshoes suggested you can also add thinly sliced squash, zucchini and eggplant to it
try marinating the vegetables a little with a little of an oil based salad dressing you like or balsamic vinegar and fresh herbs
you can make sandwiches with the roasted vegetables that are way delicious 10/25/2008 5:57:39 PM |

HOW the hell are veggies "YUCKY" ????
I love how people fill thier diet w/ processed crap, soda, fast food, etc, become addicted to the insulin response from eating said foods, and can no longer enjoy the variety of fruits and vegatables. 10/25/2008 8:34:23 PM |

i love veggies. what about squash? zucchini? you don't have to make it all mushy. you can grill it. i don't like mushy squash. what about green beans? YUM. peas? broccoli? asparagus? snow peas? CORN? okra? ok lots of people hate okra.
what about a salad with black beans, chickpeas, carrots, celery, cucumber, lettuce, olives, pepper, tomato, onion. yum could it get anymore delicious?
what about cucumber, tomato, and mozz salad. YUM.

I'd wager her tastes are fucked by her own (or her parents own doing).
It's the same as fat fucks putting sugar on fruit.
My perceptions of foods has changed as I've altered my diet, and cut the shit out of it.

Have you tried roasting/baking them in the oven?
Pototoes, squash, zucchini, onion, tomato (mix, match, all together, add more...) drizzled in olive oil, mixed together w/ basil, salt, cracked pepper,and crushed garlic (maybe some parm and red pepper flakes)... bake on 350 or roast for half an hour............NOM NOM NOM

Throw in a can of drained chickpeas (better if you sautee them first so they become cripsy on the outside) and some buffalo mozzarella, and you have a complete meal there. You can also dump in a cup of wholemeal cooked pasta, or brown rice, or cooked wheat berries, or cooked barley. That would be an awesome meal.10/25/2008 9:20:59 PM |

Oh yeah...
Pulled chicken meat, cubed beef/lamb, fresh cooked salmon, smoked salmon, canned salmon/tuna would all be great with it.
Heck, you could cube some corned beef or beef/turkey salami and add it if you are lazy/in a hurry 10/25/2008 9:33:00 PM |

i hear that. i like cooking though. i mean sometimes i'm too tired but i like it a lot. just mixing things up and seeing what happens. but if you don't like cooking, i can see how that would be a bummer
you could always plan your meals out ahead? salads are so easy. and grilling a piece of chicken to put on a salad is simple too (like with a george forman. if it is thawed it takes like no time at all). that is a yummy dinner and you can get veggies.
or like someone already suggested a stir fry, but that has the potential for a lot of sodium if you actually stir fry it. i really like grilled/roast vegetables. grilled squash and zucchini are like my favorite. you could make a casserole? mmm squash casserole. i mean maybe not the healthiest but still yummy.10/25/2008 9:35:30 PM |
