Can vegetables be addictive??
According to the October issue of Vegnews magazine, frying is the only cooking method that can make a vegetable addictive.
The writer’s obviously never tried Cauliflower “Chicken” Nuggets.
My roommate has decided that recipe is her newest-favorite way to eat vegetables. On a recent trip to the grocery store, I found giant heads of cauliflower on sale for $1.99 each, so I turned them all into cauliflower “chicken” nuggets yesterday, and we couldn’t stop eating them!
Yes, veggies can definitely be addictive.
In a big, red bowl…
It’s like KFC, only better!
And now, for your viewing pleasure, photos of the other veggie lovers in my life:
As it turns out, Batman was very well-named. At night he likes to burrow under the covers and sleep at the bottom of the bed. Like a bat in a dark cave… I don’t know how he can breathe!
Question of the Day:
Are there any veggies you could eat all day long?
Roasted sweet potatoes? Raw carrot sticks? Or maybe you’re even addicted to salad? Did you know there exists a surefire way to make any vegetables addictive?
Completely cover them in Crazy-Good Ranch Dressing.
I challenge any veggie-hater to just try and resist a plate of caramelized, roasted veggies covered in that addictive ranch dressing. Just try.
Tomorrow: cookies!!
i could eat celery allll day long with your amazing ranch dressing. and btw, i love when you put links up to older recipes!!!!!! loove it!

*Passes celery across the table* 😉
MMMM, that kind of reading and pictures make one really, really hungry. And i was just about ready for sleep. Now, i just can’t get that delicious cauliflower out of my head :> grrrrr. You bad bad person. I just know what my dreams are gonna be about.
Just can’t wait to wake up, and start my breakfast :>>>>>>>>>>
snap peas and sweet peas! soo yummy!
steamed (very steamed/soft) broccoli with butter and garlic! omg, I could eat ALL DAY.
and. um. mashed potatoes….but I count that more as a carb 😉
Two favorites. Cauliflower tossed in garlic infused olive oil, corn meal and S&P and roasted. Also roasted brussell sprouts with olive oil, S&P and balsamic vinegar.
I could eat steamed cauliflower and broccoli all day long. From fresh or frozen, they’re the best!
I could eat a roasted sweet potato…all day, everyday. Oh wait, I do 🙂
Katie- i LOVE it when you post back to older recipes. i didn’t visit your blog when these were originally posted, so i appreciate you linking back to them!! i love veggies and i’ve never actually roasted cauliflower before! i loooove sweet potatos and carrots. sometimes i think they turn my skin orange b/c i eat so much of them haha!
Thank you so much :).
I have to watch out about the orange thing too… At least we don’t need to spend money on those tanning lotions, right? 😉
I’m a sucker for roasted asparagus!
funny you posted this because i just started a roasted cauliflour obsession! my fav is mixed w olive oil, tumeric, chili powder, and garlic powder. i also love roasted butternut squash and baked sweet potatoes. i eat all of these for dinner just about weekly. any chocolate veggie recipes from you??
Sure! My spinach pancakes and strawberry-chocolate ice cream both use Amazing Grass green powder… so I guess they’re chocolate veggie recipes. I’m working on zucchini chocolate cupcakes :).
