Thread: Low Calorie Vegetable Dishes

I am looking for any low calorie vegetable dishes. If you have any I would enjoy seeing them.

Thanks!!!!

What kind of veggies do you like? I have a lot of recipes, but peoples opinions vary greatly on the taste of certain ones! Let me know and I will post!

I like almost all vegetables, i have never tried brussell spouts and I dont like asparagus (spelling?)

Thanks Jewels

The vegetables I usually make are from costco, but they're just frozen stir-fry vegetables so I'm sure they sell them anywhere. You put however much you want in a frying pan or wok with some water, put the top on and steam until they're hot. Then drain and eat with salt, pepper, and soy sauce. I like putting on Kikkoman Teryaki sauce, I think green onion and garlic is the flavor we have. I'm not sure where to get it though :/ If you can find it, it's amazing Anyway... hope that helped :P

I didnt think that I would like brussells sprouts, but I tried them and LOVE them. You will too if you like cabbage.

3. Roast in the preheated oven for 30 to 45 minutes, shaking pan every 5 to 7 minutes for even browning. Reduce heat when necessary to prevent burning. Brussels sprouts should be darkest brown, almost black, when done. Adjust seasoning with kosher salt, if necessary. Serve immediately
