I was just sharing a couple of suggestions with another lady who doesn't cook much yet; doesn't like many veggies or fruits; and is trying to be vegetarian as well ...
Of course any type of veggie stir-fry with a bit of cooked rice mixed in is great; good veggies for that are: mushrooms; red, white, or green onions; r/y/g sweet peppers; kniblet or baby corn; all kinds of shredded cabbages; diced carrots; celery; sweet peas and pods; regular and cherry tomatoes; zucchini; broccoli & cauliflower. Use a bit of olive oil and light seasoning and soya sauce; stir in cooked rice and just heat through.
I also suggested a large baking pan or dish of roasted veggies like: chunks of sweet potatoes, onions, mushrooms, celery, carrots, parsnips, turnips, baby new red or white potatoes, sweet peppers, zucchini, tomatoes, any cabbage, green and yellow beans, and so on. I bake my veggies in a little broth, but water with a little seasoning is fine too.
I find that soups and sauces help make some dishes taste better too; esp pasta dishes mixed with cooked veggies like layered potato and veggie scallop or pasta casseroles. You can just experiement to see which you like best; you can make your lasagna and just put in a layer of cooked broccoli with a creamy soup; or a layer of sliced zucchini with a tomato sauce and so forth. Lots of ideas out there.
