Cook the Book: 'The Vegetable Dishes I Can't Live Without'
Chinese broccoli!
Or maybe spinach, delivered via various types of Middle Eastern spinach pie.

Huh. Soup dumplings and Lion’s Head is exactly what we ordered (plus pickled cabbage, scallion pancakes, turnip cakes, fried pork dumplings, fried rice cake with “a little bit of everything” . . . and a big plate of Chinese broccoli, to keep us alive).
My team’s challenge this Christmas was not how to find good Cantonese or Chinese-American food, but how to find any restaurant that didn’t have at least a half-hour wait (this was around 6 pm). In the end we went to Goodies, because at least there was room to stand comfortably until a table opened up—unlike at Noodletown, where the vestibule was jam-packed. No doubt this was because of your post.
Crisp, usually, but it depends on what I'm eating it with—e.g., if you have a crisp waffle, sometimes you want your bacon chewy, for contrast.
The only definite item on the menu is hot chocolate, which my parents used to make the night before and place in a Thermos next to the tree. It kept my brother and me busy while our parents got to sleep a few minutes longer.
Besides that, I might have a slice of panettone and an Asian pear.
I've made her savory biscotti from the Hors d'Oeuvres Handbook, as well as the Sweet and Salty Cake.

It's cubed potatoes with sour cream with ranch dressing and cheddar cheese baked.
Fresh mixed, steamed garden vegetables with salt and butter.
I love many vegetable, but I find roasted potatoes with herbs and olive oil to be a very satisying comfort food.
Fried homegrown green tomatoes. Heaven on earth!
Grilled veggie fajitas, definitely.
Love broccoli with a small amount of butter and salt.
A veggie tray is my new chocolate. I have absolutely fallen in love with raw veggies. My favorite meal is stir-fry. I also enjoy a big salad with as many veggies as I can find depending on the season. Thanks for the contest. I would enjoy winning the prize, because it would open up a whole new world for me with veggies.
