There's other things you can add too, like butternut squash, rutabaga, turnip, celery root, Brussels sprouts and beets every now and again.

A squash and cauliflower soup in the winter, sprinkled with bacon bits and cheese would be lovely! Mashed rutabaga and cauliflower drizzled with balsamic vinegar, beet puree with a pork chop, celery and celery root gratin...

I think it's better to add vegetable carbs than dairy or dessert carbs, not that I follow my own advice!

If you ever do come to Vancouver, PM me.
