Tried a new dinner last night: Bertolli's Tuscan-Style Braised Beef with Gold Potatoes. It was really yummy, but there didn't seem to be enough meat in it (either that or John really did eat it all). I also didn't eat any of the other veggies (there were red and yellow peppers as well as onions), and I really need to figure out how to fix my aversion to some foods.
I don't like veggies. I like starches and some beans, but veggies are an entirely different beast. I know they're good for me, and I know they're necessary to reach my clean eating goals. But I've never liked them, and I've never been forced to eat them building up a taste for them. How do I get past that mental block and help myself like veggies?
I have a similar issue with yogurt. I HATE yogurt, but I'd really love to like it. I can see the benefits in it, but I can't get past the first bite. I can cook with it and I've been able to make some smoothies successfully, but overall, it's just not happening.
Milk is another story. My dislike for milk is a psychological issue that stems from a rotten carton that I got in grade school. I'm ok with not drinking milk because there are so many other options for calcium. I still get some in my diet, but I don't drink it, and I don't really think I want to.
Any suggestions?
