I really think most people are unaware how good veggies can be just simply being roasted. Of course fresh ones - NOT from a can. I think many people would be converts if they just tried em' that way.

I used to think I wasn’t overly fond of Brussels sprouts, till I roasted them!
I was gonna say roasted asparagus, Robin. Your story made me laugh because that is exactly what happened when my mother (the most notoriously finicky eater in the world) came to visit and I made roasted asparagus. Same with sprouts (I've never tried the frozen but I'll give it a go sometime). I just drizzle with a bit olive oil and roast in the oven.
In fact, asparagus made that way is probably one of my all-time favorite dishes.
