Grind some celtic sea salt on it

or dip it in tomato sauce, or bbq sauce, or melted chocolate, or thickened cream, or melted butter

some choices are better than others

salt...mrs dash...chopped onions, garlic.. there are tons of no carb/low carb options! there is even a barbecue sauce that only has 2 grams of sorbitol per two tablespoons ! no fat or anything else just two grams of sorbitol. that acceptable on a low carb diet to me!

(side note..a little bit of iodized salt would probably be a ood idea!~ the iodine will keep you thyroid pumping and the salt will increase water retention which helps spare muscle tissue while dieting! )

Post by: loco on April 02, 2008, 05:54:39 AM: Yes, I hate broccoli too.

I've tried this before and it's pretty good. Give it a try:

"Let’s use broccoli as an example, simply because it’s probably the most nutritious but also the most despised vegetable. It’s the one most people avoid because they don’t like the taste.

Firstly, wash and dice your fresh broccoli. Heat a non-stick pan on a high level. Once the pan is hot, add a table spoon of sesame oil and immediately toss in your broccoli. Cover the pan and cook on a moderate to high temperature for just 2-3 minutes, but no longer. Stir the broccoli one or twice during this short time. Once the 2-3 minutes is up, scoop the broccoli out, serve and eat while nice ‘n’ hot.

This cooking method keeps the vegetable firm and crunchy, the sesame oil is important as it brings out a nutty, flavorsome texture in this vegetable that makes it taste great. If you’re use to microwaving your vegetables, the method I’ve described here will make an incredible difference in taste. It will have you actually smacking your lips, looking forward to your servings of vegetables each day."
