I'm just big fat not a big fan of vegetables. I can actually do without the bread and fruit really well. I just have to force veggies down my throat... I cook asparagus into my eggs in the morning, but when it comes to lunch... it's a sad situation. I've lost almost 6 lbs in the first week which was cool, but the honeymoon has to end at some point and I am going to have to really get serious about the veggies soon. I was thinking of covering some broccoli with cheese, but then is that too much cheese. That's another thing... cheese... I physically ate an entire pack of american cheese today...yet I keep losing... somehow I have to stop this maddness!!! I haven't "cheated" or anything, but my portions are all out of wack! I know this is going to catch up with me...
What can I do to these veggies to get them down? and by the way, what does a serving of american cheese consist of? 1 slice? 2?
I love love love this board.... you CLs are fantastic!!!
Cheers!

It really isn't a lot of work.
That does sound yummy. I should steam them too. I'd like it better than boiling them, which is what I've been doing. Microwaving veggies in oil is supposed to have a similar tasty effect as steaming.
I heard that boiling them too long or too fast could lose the nutritional value of the veggies.
With this boiling you are really just blanching.
The steamer insert looks like a great idea. We have a rice cooker/steamer that might do the trick but maybe not.
I should get what you have.
We have had two combination steamers and now have a good Aroma rice steamer (no better way to cook rice!).
