I have gone off veg a lot lately, too Brona. I have started using more of the unusual kinds, like baby corn and zucchini. It's nice to sprinkle them a selection of chopped veg with olive oil, salt and black pepper, then bake in a hot oven until slightly blackened.
I loooooooooove spuds and miss them more than anything - but I do allow myself to have some every fortnight or so. I wish there was a decent LC sub for them.
I tried the apple slice/zucchini mix in a crumble and it was gorgeous - what a great way to get a veg! I might try all zucchini next time and use some SF apple drink for flavour - the texture is brilliant. Husband loved it too and he is not LC.
