Re: Ima cooking!! | | Kpoll--first off, sounds like a FABULOUS menu! How could anyone turn that down???
That is really great that your daughter wants to join! It's very nice to have family support.
Hmm, as for getting your husband to eat more veggies...this is something I did with my boyfriend. He WOULD NOT eat any "fancy" lettuces like spinach or baby greens or arugula or endive or raddichio or ANYTHING. He would only eat iceberg. I started mixing iceberg with spinach, or iceberg with baby greens, just a little at a time. Now, he ONLY eats the "fancy" lettuce! I also made sure to put extra stuff on the salads, like bacon pieces, nice cheese, tomatoes, bell peppers. He had the misconception that salads had to be bland and boring.
There's also a recipe on here for...well shoot, sorry to sound inappropriate, but it's always been called a cauliflower boob. Here's the recipe (and if I don't have this right, feel free to correct me.) Take a head of cauliflower, cut off the leafy sections and most of the steam, but leave the head intact. Cook in a dish with a bit of water in the bottom in the microwave until soft and tender. Drain water and return to dish. Cover with a mixture of mustard and mayo (no directions on how much to use--do this to your preference. I also used dijon mustard rather than plain) then cover with the cheese of your choice, and crumbled bacon. Bake in the oven at 350 until golden brown. I just made this last night and it's REALLY awesome! You also don't have to use the whole head--I used two large flowerets and cut back on the ingredients.
