@ LEEPERT - you can select which side you want the door to open. Mine opens from the other side than the one pictured.

I tried brussel sprouts for the first time last night. I got some in my produce box a couple weeks ago & I thought about subbing them, but decided to give them a shot. The recipe I found was to sautee them in honey butter until they carmelized, then add some chili flakes, a bit of water, cover, & cook a few more min until done. I can't believe I hadn't tried them before! I'm going to start buying them & will be making them for Thanksgiving this year.

As a fellow vegetarian & occasional picky eater, I sometimes encounter the same problem (especially if I'm being lazy). Like other comments before mine, get him to help cooking. Quorn products are very tasty & their package of beefless crumbles works very well with pasta or in chili. Baked broccoli w/ parmesean sprinkled on top is really good too. Another thing I like to do is make mac & cheese with steamed broccoli & cauliflower mixed in. Makes it a little healthier. I also sauteed brussell sprouts in honey butter, which was divine. Squash might be another thing for him to try. Just add a little butter, salt & pepper & bake.

It took me a while to be a bit more adventurous & try new veggies, spice, etc, but he'll get there eventually.
