I am a master of cooking without onions because I can't eat them and they are in freaking everything. Maybe try to ease your palatte into them by using minced dried onion or cooked leeks or something. It might help.I don't really know how to describe it. Whatever the texture of raw onion is. That just grosses me out. Maybe it's the combo of the texture and the flavor? IDK. I LOVE apples though. That texture doesn't bother me.
This is probably the most helpful. The whole herbs and spices thing is foreign to me. :h5:How do you season your guac? How do you get it to the right taste?
You mix it, then try it and add what you think it needs, right?
Just do that with your veggies.
You can even cook the veggies and separate them into different containers and add different things to find what mixes well.
There are also certain herbs and spices that go with various styles.
Italian: rosemary, basil, oregano, garlic
TexMex/"Mexican": cumin, coriander, Mexican oregano, maybe sage depending on the dish
Find three or four spices that mesh with your next meal and just start seasoning stuff.
Onion powder isn't bad to start with. I can eat a little onion powder but not real onions - though the more cooked they are then I can actually have them with the item, just not eating them.I am a master of cooking without onions because I can't eat them and they are in freaking everything.

My grocery list is building itself today...
Gonna try the cinnamon butternut squash cubes and maybe the zuc tonight. Also going to pick up a few herbs and spices.
Thanks for the help guys. I'll be checking the thread out when I get home.
I did this as a child.Up until like 5 years ago, I didn't like raw onion either. Now I feel like I could almost eat it as an apple.
Actually, I recently saw a cinnamon butternut recipe very similar to your cauliflower one that sounded really good. I think that's the one I'm going to start with.
As far as the calories go, I'm not too worried about that. I really don't eat a whole lot, so even when I eat like shit I still eat less than 2000 calories a day. My breakfast and lunch are healthy sustenance meals, it's just that my dinners are shitty. So I'm hoping to substitute that shitty part of the dinners with veggies.
That mashed cauliflower recipe looks amazing. I'll have to remember that one.
hey, you ever cook bacon.... cook that shit on a broiler pan, pourthe fat drippings through a sieve and freeze that shitThis is probably the most helpful. The whole herbs and spices thing is foreign to me. :h5:
clearly you've never cooked them in some bacon grease with butter and saltBrussel sprouts are never a good idea.
