Are green beans veggies or legumes?  Are the two mutually exclusive?

sweet potatoes and asparagus.. 

sweet potatoes I diced up, drizzle with olive oil and for breakfast I'll put cinnamon on them.. but for dinner I will either just put rosemary on them or I will put garlic salt and basil on them. bake at 375 for an hour..

thank god you posted this.  i've been wanting to profess my love for tomatoes all thread long, but i was scared of the not-a-vegetable mafia.

when asparagus goes on sale for like a 1.88 a lb I get pretty giddy.. but I have to remember to just cook enough for that meal because they are awful as leftovers.

Tomatoes and squash are both amazing and versatile .

I could avocado with every mean for the rest of my life and not get sick of it. 

Don't me started on the vast types of onions!!  And BEANS!  A good pinto or red bean oh my!

i have several asparagus bushes in the backyard, enough that in the spring i can harvest enough shoots for a meal every other day or so.... i sometimes don't flush at work just so everyone gets to enjoy my harvest

i hate to disagree, but sweet potatoes not only suck, they also taste bad and have a disappointing texture.

water chestnuts!  what an addition to a nice stir fry.

 you sir have never had sweet potato tempura or grilled sweet potato, both delicious

Here's a veggie pro-tip:
Fennel (the bulb)

throw that in a soup or stew for a great savory taste!

[bubbles4ksu]

if i eat more than 4 or 5 baby carrots they make my stomach hurt. what's up with that?

At like family christmas parties and stuff I love when their is a vegetable tray.  Most people will be snacking on chips and stuff but I love vegetable trays.  But then I get pretty bad gas usually.  I wonder what the science is behind that?  One of nature's mysteries I guess.

cellery with peanut butter.

also, peanuts.

Hey Chingon! I love vegetable's too!

In fact I just got done eating some grilled Kale! Love any kind of green's but Kale is my favorite! I usually coat the kale in olive oil then add some lemon pepper seasoning or lemon juice at the end. In the winter I will throw them in a pot(Covered) and cook on low about 7 min or until they get half wilty. Cooked some on the grill tonight over medium heat, about 1 min each side.

Corn is awesome too! I keep mine in the husk and soak them in water for about 30 minutes then throw them on the grill for around 20 minutes. YUM YUM.

Its the chemicals in veggies. stomach leaves them alone and then the dudes in your gut love em and eat them and process them into stuff your lower GI can't handle well so you fart.

There exists not a universe where tomatoes are veggies and avocados are not. 

Don't go there!

maybe the universe where vegetables are plants or grow on plants and fruits grow on trees, bub.
