Tips for the vegetable curious
1
Dare to be different.
Oven-baked Buffalo cauliflower bites are a healthier alternative to buffalo chicken wings typically eaten as a party or tailgate appetizer. Try this with broccoli, too!
2
Stuff 'em.
Stuffed peppers are perfect for a zesty Southwest-inspired family dinner. Not only are they filling, but they contain a delicious combination of lean protein, vegetables and spices.
3
Pass the "pasta."
Instead of taditional noodles, try swapping them for spaghetti squash strands, which are low in calories and carbohydrates, high in fiber and loaded with potassium, vitamin A and vitamin C.
