Vegetables Are Worth A Try

You either love or hate them, that is a guarantee. Most people undeniably hate vegetables and that’s because you hated them as children because grandma forced them on your plate, and you couldn’t leave until everything was gone, or maybe you just thought they looked icky. Most people do not ever get the opportunity to try vegetables in a way that tastes good because no one has ever cooked them properly. Sure, raw vegetables and some type of sauce can be good if you prefer them that way, but roasted, baked, grilled, and even fried can turn veggies into a dish that stands alone.
