And how you are cooking them. What are your favorite veggies and how do you like to cook them? When I quit eating meat I discovered I was really clueless about how to fix veggies. My entire previous experience revolved around how to properly prepare meat and vegetables were always relegated to an afterthought. It was part of what made going vegan really scary at first but I LOVE it now.
Sometimes the technique you use for cooking veggies can almost eliminate the need for much seasoning at all. When cooking broccoli, carrots, cauliflower or green beans I now blanch them in boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes and remove them from heat, salt lightly and serve. This seals in the flavor and protects the vibrant colors of the vegetables so they look spectacular and don't really require much seasoning at all.
Using a pressure cooker to cook any vegetables opens up a WHOLE NEW WORLD of flavor to cooking your veggies. Nothing, but nothing beats a pressure cooker for giving your veggies an intense, savory shot of flavor. It also shortens your cooking time for something like scalloped potatoes from one hour in the oven to just 20 minutes. Perfect corn on the cob in 5 minutes, baked potatoes just like oven fresh in 12 minutes, green beans, peas and carrots in 3 minutes, and all with a taste like you've never had them before in your life. Yum. Pressure cooking is another method that preserves the beautiful colors of your vegetables. Never underestimate the power of appearance when cooking.
If you are using dried herbs and spices, make sure they are not too old and spend that little bit of extra money for the better brands. You don't know where that cheap stuff comes from or what might be in it. :scared: Not to mention, it's usually tasteless crap.
A couple of spices you may or may not be familiar with that I would recommend for vegetables are cumin, paprika and chipolte chili flavoring. The cumin and chipolte, although they are different, both have a kind of smoky warm, savory and slightly exotic flavor that will allow you to use less oil or butter and still pack in that satisfying flavor. Paprika is lovely for adding contrasting color to potatoes, corn, squash, onion and other yellow and light colored vegetables and adds just a touch of zip.
One very good all-around seasoning that I have found is Mrs. Dash Vegetable Supreme seasoning with buttery herbs. It has sweet and savory herb along with some sesame seeds. Very yummy.
I would also suggest experimenting with fresh herbs which are usually available in your supermarket produce section.
