We had asparagus for dinner, much to the dismay of all three children. They took their token bite and moved on to their number one love and mine, pasta.  I do make some pretty fantastic asparagus though. My husband loves it. I sautee it in a little butter and brown sugar (the vehicles to help veggies go down), and then simmer it in chicken broth for about eight minutes. Drain and eat!

I have a notebook that I use only for vegetable dishes. Everytime I find one that I like, I cut it out and put it in the notebook.  I have a million ways to cook carrots, broccoli, green beans, potato casseroles, ton’s of different salads etc. It’s super handy when we need a vegetable dish to go with dinner. Of course the binder is the old fashioned way. If you are more a digital recipe collector, my sisters menu planning software is awesome!
