'Eat more vegetables,' doctors and dietitians say over and over. But for many people, it’s hard to do, because they aren’t excited about veggies or just don’t like them.
When you think of a meal, are vegetables the forgettable side character or the villain?
What if they could be the star of the show?
“Eat more vegetables,” doctors and dietitians say over and over. But for many people, it’s hard to do, because they aren’t excited about veggies or just don’t like them.
A lot of people’s first experience with vegetables in childhood is having them steamed, and while steaming works well for some veggies, they don’t all taste their best that way, said Caroline Chambers, author of the new cookbook “What to Cook When You Don’t Feel Like Cooking.”
Learning to love vegetables might mean expanding your understanding of the possibilities when it comes to cooking them, she added.
And though you might want to stick with your one favorite vegetable all year round, plants really do taste better — and can be more fun — when eaten in their right season, said Chambers, who is based in Carmel Valley, California.
Fortunately, Chambers specializes in making food fun and exciting without much fuss. She started her career as a caterer, then became a recipe developer. Once the Covid-19 pandemic hit and people were stuck at home, she started posting recipes online that are easy to make with what you already have.

While Canada is well known for its accomplishments in space — including building the robotic arms used on the Space Shuttle and the International Space Station — the country still has no ability to launch its own satellites. This week, Ottawa committed nearly a quarter‑billion dollars towards changing that.

It’s an enduring stereotype that Canadians are unfailingly nice, quick to apologize even when they have done nothing wrong. But an online urban legend claims the opposite of Canada’s soldiers, painting a picture of troops so brazen in their brutality that international laws were rewritten to rein them in.
