12. asparagus is always my first choice, but I would eat any of those

on the list, or small amounts of all of them in a stirfry.

[Arugula Latte]

13. Me too. I just loves me some vegetables.

*drools*

2. Peas - the frozen organic ones are good

I love asparagus but I don't know where you can get it fresh this time of year and frozen asparagus is HORRIBLE.

I like corn, too. Why isn't corn on your list? Are you against CORN? On the eve of the Iowa caucuses?

[MissMillie]

9. I love corn

but I'm already serving a starch...

[BOSSHOG]

3. Mustard Greens with a heavy dose of hot sauce

or, in keeping with your poll, broccoli. I can't get enough veggies. How bout steamed brussel sprouts drizzled with butter and lemon juice?

[Squatch]

4. How are you doing the scallops?

[MissMillie]

8. just a quick sear in a stove-top grill pan.... little lemon juice to finish

:hi:

5. Spinach

I loves me some spinach!

6. Asparagus.

MrSG sautes it in garlic and wine, and WOW, is it good!

[Squatch]

7. She's serving scallops. Garlic and wine would kinda put the smack down

on those tasty morsels.

[Gormy Cuss]

14. Not if she's making sea scallops

Bay scallops may be overwhelmed but the big scallops stand up to garlic and wine quite nicely.

10. Raw spinach. Make a salad out of it.

11. Broccoli prevents cancer, so if you serve it, you can consider yourself

a hero.

By the way, don't cook it. Raw broccoli is healthiest.

Cheers.

15. Asparagus is nasty, and still hasn't admitted culpability for the war.

Zucchini and broccoli are equally nasty corporatist stooges, and sound foreign. Green beans and peas are certainly electable, but haven't we had enough of the same old vegetables? Go for the rhyme. Go for spinach.

16. Doesn't matter as long as you melt cheese all over it.

17. I would have gone for broccoli or spinach, but I suspect you've already had your dinner by now.

I had broccoli tonight.
