I do the same thing with Brussels sprouts, but add in some cranberries and walnuts.

Toss slices of zucchini with oil, salt, pepper and a bit of lemon juice and grill on the BBQ. :drool:

Kale + Other Veggies

Remove the kale greenery from the stems (stems are hard) and steam for about 5 minutes. While kale is steaming heat some canola oil in a wok and chop the other veggies. After steaming toss the kale into the wok, and add other veggies. Some that I've used are broccoli, bokchoy, baby corns etc. Also add some garlic. None of these other veggies need to be precooked or anything, just the kale as its pretty tough. Douse liberally in soy sauce and stir fry in the wok for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and serve.

Grab some broccoli, peppers, mushrooms and red onions, toss them lightly with some olive oil, a dash of salt, then throw them on the bbq in a grilling basket for about 20 minutes.

Grilled broccoli tastes amazing.

Does not keep overnight as humidity finds it way in. Keep an eye on the edges turning brown to black.... you've gone too long if they go black. Goes real well with beer, due to the salt (go light, you can always add more).

Vegetables are huge in my household so we often try different things.

I often make broccoli casseroles ...broccoli, cream cheese and milk with s&p, grated cheese and bread crumbs on the top, bake in oven and its done.

Or boil broccoli and cauliflower, set aside and make a cream sauce using a basic roux and chez whiz. My MIL does hers differently, combining the broccoli and cauliflower with chicken stock, grated cheese and curry powder....omg delicious!

Roasted golden beets are good too. Cube them, toss with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste and roast in the oven for about 40 mins.
