I love vegetables when somebody else cooks them! It's taken me awhile to get used to cooking them myself. I grew up with boiled to death vegetables, and then went through years of not eating them because I hate them without butter, but thought I couldn't have butter.

One quick Atkins meal for me -- a good break from meat -- has always been to take a zucchini, slice it in very thin slices, fry it in butter, cover it with shredded mozzarella cheese, put a lid on it and cook until the cheese is one gooey delicious mess

The Eades, in Protein Power, talk more about vegetables than Atkins, and suggests a higher fiber intake than Atkins does. But even on 20 grams of carbs, if you add it up, that's a lot of broccoli and cabbage
