OK, my friend requested I bring "something green" to go with the mahi-mahi he is making. What goes with mahi? Be advised that I hate green beans to hell.

I was just working in the garden and am pleased to see my asparagus is coming back up this year again!  I started the plant last year and was sure it died as I had failed to protect it with mulch over the winter and it hadn't even peeked out as late as a few days ago.  Woot!  Also the beans, cucumbers and potatoes are all peaking out, and the sugar snap peas and peppers (which were all bedding plants) are doing good too.  Now all I need is for the carrots to show themselves and I'm set.

Oh and there's a frost warning tonight (at the end of May fer fuck sake), so all the plants have been tucked in under flannel sheets for the night.

I've found I love just about any vegetable if roasted or grilled, or sauteed for some of them. Like, I hate steamed broccoli or steamed carrots but love them both roasted. I do like a lot of raw vegetables, especially cabbage. I love me some cabbage. I'll take cabbage just about every way you'll give it to me.

Oh man.  I like me some cabbage, but my intestinal flora like it even more.

I find it hilarious that most of you hate mushrooms in any form except sauteed...I prefer them raw. Y'all are freaks.

What?  No, I love mushrooms in just about any way you can prepare them.  Although, raw is probably my least favorite way to eat them.

What is wrong with you people? Mushrooms are hell of rad. They are like tofu in their flavor absorbing property. I will eat a giant ass mushroom on a hamburger bun all done up right and call it dinner. What's for dinner? Fungus. You squares are whack.

I've got a fellow's back here. Best veggie burger I ever had just had a giant mushroom cap instead of a pattie, freaking awesome.
I believe we've discussed bulking up mince and similar things as well.

Yeah mushrooms are fantastic.  I know I waxed poetic about my love of morels on the board a couple months ago.  I love a sandwich/burger of grilled veggies such as red pepper, onion, etc. as a "tower" including shiitakee as the "meat" along with some nice tangy goat cheese.

Yeah, this.  Last night I poached a bunch of whole ones in seasoned vegetable stock.  Yum.

Why are we discussing fungus?

Good point. Totally different kingdom from vegetables.

We are discussing them because this is the vegetable thread and we are more than three replies in. It could have gone much, much worse.
