    I'm not a great fan of vegetables so I have to trick myself to eat them.

    If I make a bolognese sauce or lasagna I put grated carrot in the meat sauce and I make sure I put lots of onions, garlic (well I'm French :rotfl: ) and mushrooms.

    My favourite though is cooked pasta mixed with broccoli and cauliflower, covered in cheese sauce and cooked in the oven for 40 minutes.

    Or hot salmon sandwich: mini baguette filled with grilled salmon and lots and lots of lettuce - or rather as said before by yourself: leaves in a bag!! (or "lots of grass" as DD calls it! :D )

    I wish chocolate was a vegetable... I would have no trouble with that!!
