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 can eat just about any veggie all the time. I just don’t like raw onions. My favorite are grape tomatoes though. I go through a whole pack in one sitting.
THESE ARE TO DIE FOR.
I would have never guessed, but roasted kale is amazing
Sugar snap peas! I could eat them in large amounts every day of my life 🙂
I love carrots, all salad greens, mushrooms, and Brussels sprouts! I peel and dice the carrots and put in a big container in the freezer to use them as a crunchy “cereal”. Sounds crazy to some people, but I do the same with apples and will mix dry roasted nuts (pistachios are amazing) with cinnamon, nutmeg, some stevia, and any type of milk or Greek yogurt.
I just love eating with a spoon, and this is a healthy way to do it! I also enjoy just microwave steaming Brussels sprouts and eating them like popcorn. Pretty sure I’ll be making roasted cauliflower now…
I could eat and eat and eat butternut squash and spaghetti squash ALL DAY LONG!!!!!! It’s so hard for me to stop, yikes… I have some spaghetti squash in the oven and I just want to eat it all up right now! LOL but I MUST RESTRAIN!
I like vegetables, but I don’t think there are any that I am really addicted to or could eat a lot of every day. I probably like broccoli or salad the best, followed closely by spinach and carrots. Basically I just combine all of those ingredients to make a big salad, along with some garbanzo beans and a little bit of Italian cheese- it is so good! I want to start LOVING vegetables like many of you do, but it just hasn’t hit me yet. Hopefully my palette grows more as I continue to age and I start liking vegetables more. I’m a much bigger fruit lover for sure.
What is your favorite vegetable?
Broccoli… I think. It’s hard to choose! 🙂
I was totally into a salad kick a few months ago lol!
The writer of that article hasn’t tried the following recipe either, because they’re not fried and they are so ridiculously addictive it’s kind of sad. I dare you to try them and disagree:

Random question, but as a vegan do you feed your dogs vegetable based dog food? Is that good for them?
