If you would have told my 6-year-old self that I would someday like vegetables as much, if not more, than my chocolate Easter bunny, she would have laughed at you and then given you a list of reasons why that couldn't possibly be true. Well guess what know-it-all 6-year-old me — you do. Here are 15 recipes from around the web that I'm dying to cook up right this minute!

OMG this pizza looks amazing! I love this time of year, root veggies are my favorite!
The Martha stewart pizza is amazing - we make it every year, since it was in everyday food a few years ago!
The picture of the pizza just gave me an idea for a quick dinner tonight. I have some leftover roasted fingerling potatoes and brussel sprouts in the fridge...perfect pizza topping! I might use some gruyere cheese though.
The pizza is the best thing I've ever eaten in my life! And it was SO easy.
Thanks for this, it seems a lot are vegetarian as well. :-) Off to bookmark!
The link for the Crusted Butternut Squash recipe doesn't point to the correct place. The actual link is here: http://www.sproutedkitchen.com/home/2011/10/6/crusted-butternut-squash.html
Attention turnip fans, get thee to this soup recipe: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/14/health/nutrition/leek-turnip-and-rice-soup-recipes-for-health.html
It may even convert any non-turnip fans!
Try beef stew with apple, pear & pumpkin.... it's yummy! http://7th-taste.com/2011/10/11/argentine-beef-stew-with-apple-pear-pumpkin-and-merlot/
In a risotto! Especially if you skip the grains completely; this one is made with cauliflower rice instead:

Great. Now I want pizza.
In addition to the pizza, MS put those roasted vegetable on a salad and made a stew. All the recipes were delicious. I think I added a little ginger to the soup and it was extra tasty.
