faulknerhorn Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Hey everyone, I'm on day 24 (gasp? I can't believe I'm almost done. So sad. I think I'll keep going until christmas!) I'm feeling like I need some variety on the vegetable front: here's the catch, I try to adhere to the TCM concept of eating cooked, warm things when the weathers cold, so that eliminates a number of raw veggie options. Mostly I've been eating: spaghetti squash, acorn squash, buttercup squash, peppers, kale, brussel sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, avocado (as a fat), zucchini. Any other colourful cookable veggies you can think of? I feel like I'm forgetting things I could be eating? What do your plates look like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 This Whole9 produce guide is helpful - tells you what's in season and also makes recommendations on what you should get organic (and what you don't need to worry about) http://whole9life.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/whole9-produce-guide.pdf I also love asparagus, and had a nice batch of broccoli rabe this week - yum. Not a green veg, but I enjoy rutabaga too. I use 1/2 a rutabaga in this recipe instead of the turnips (reduce each of the cooking times by 5 minutes): http://www.marksdailyapple.com/primal-breakfast-casserole/#axzz2kegS2zLN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roz Griffiths Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Carrots? There's a great recipe for cumin-roasted carrots in Well Fed, & it also works with parsnips (or both!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I did find the guide super helpful, I just feel like maybe my veg are too starchy? Anyway, thanks for the rutabaga suggestion. I've been meaning to look for ways to use it. ROZ- carrots!
