Mike,
Check out this site, it's a favorite over here : Linda's Low Carb Menu's & Recipes
She has plenty of recipes where you can disguise those yucky veggies into something that tastes like it's bad for you!

Hey Mike,

How have things been going with you on your low-carbing? I'm a little late on this but one thing I've had to learn to do is try to be creative. I'm not a big veggie lover so this is kinda hard for me. As you navigate through this site, you'll find sites posted where there are recipes that you can try. You've probably already figured this one out by now. Best of luck to you and happy low-carbing!

Welcome Mike and thanks for laying it out there re: your challenge with veggies, and to the others thanks for so much great advice in the responses. One of the things I like best about this BB is people are honest both ways and help each other. There really are many ways to shove veggies into something else to make them un-veggie like. Wrap some up in a beef roll up with some mayo. Cook 'em into eggs. Or go with the one or two you like for a couple weeks, I like that idea. As usual I learned a few things in this posting thread, thanks. Mike let us know how things are going.

Hi Mike, Can you eat them cooked. Like wilted spinach? (not the nasty frozen or canned stuff from childhood!)

I love to take some bacon and dice it up and cook it down remooving most of the fat. Then add a little bit of Onion (not too much b/c it's higher in carbs) or I skip the onion and softena bit of garlic and then add spinach or I love Swiss Chard - it's my favortie b/c it keep some body. When it wilts it's done. Add some salt and pepper, some people like it with a spicy vinegar. You can use collard greens, mustard greens, spinach, Kale, Chard...any of the sturdy greens. Broccoli rabe is good cooked like this too. Heck sn't anything ebtter with bacon
