I love you too, CL! But you are supposed to be extolling the virtues of low-carb veggies to me right now. Ready? Go! Talk to me about asparagus. Leave out the part about the stinky pee.

Asparagus is awesome! I love it. Another favorite.
You know what else is good - really good string beans (or green beans, is there a difference?) My grocery store only gets crappy green beans, and then every once in a while - kablam - a great shipment! I can't stop eating them - raw or cooked!
I love Edamane. I even buy the frozen ones and whip them out whenever I want something salty. I do dip them in the salt, so I try to limit it. Although, I've been known to skip the salt part.

oooooh, you just reminded me that I have a couple of those steam bags of edamame in my freezer! I can snack on those this evening. I have fairly low blood pressure so I don't worry too much about my salt intake. Is that bad?

Try to use less than 1/2 teaspoon of salt when eating the edamane. A little salt goes a long way with those.

I also snack on cucumbers and raw pea pods.
You can see I have the "pea" theme - I seem to like peas, raw pea pods and edamane. As I said - I really like the peas.

CL, I will try! But I have a physical that is in preparation for a procedure and I think the anesthesiologist needs to know the accurate weight.

I actually have always liked the taste of Lima beans, but the texture is not that great. They are dry in the middle. I've always wondered if there was a different way I could prepare them. Are they actually vegetables, or are they legumes or beans? It probably makes a difference, right? I had never even heard of butter beans until about 6 months ago. They have the same texture as Limas, but they are giant! I might bring them into the fold.

Twinkies. I'm craving Twinkies. And maybe a couple of Snowballs while I'm at it.
Lassie, are you gonna put cream cheese frosting on the carrot cake? Do I get to lick the bowl and beaters? And can I have a piece of the cake, too?
How about a napoleon? Gosh, I haven't had one of those in years and years. A napoleon and a cup of coffee. Maybe two napoleons. And a chocolate eclair for dessert. Maybe start out with a cream puff for an appetizer, then the napoleons, the the eclair.

Mmm... vegetables....
If you like asparagus, try roasting in the oven with a light drizzle of olive oil, Jane's Krazy salt, and lemon pepper seasoning. I also roast cauliflower. So delicious!
Tonight we're having tuna with mashed red skin potatoes (BF's request). I have sweet potatoes I want to make at some point this week. Tomorrow night I'm making whole wheat rigatoni with zucchini, mushrooms, and broccoli. Thursday is shrimp enchiladas with zucchini (I really need to use it up this week, I forgot I bought it!). Friday, we're going out for drinks for BF's sister's birthday, so possibly tomato soup and the sweet potato? I don't know.
How's that for veggie talk? Was it good for you?
