I would also throw in turnips, rutabaga, and kohlrabi along with everything listed below. I also dip mine in nut butters.

Thank you everyone for your helpful answers! The reason I ask for Raw Veg is because I want to bring them to work to snack on...and Raw would be easiest to prep - no cooking involved! I do eat cooked veg at dinner. Keep the suggestions coming!

Raw veggies that I like to eat include celery, broccoli, cauliflower, sweet peppers, cucumbers, and tomatoes. It's good with hummus, some low fat ranch dressing, and the cucumbers and tomatoes are good with a balsamic dressing or vinegar.

I have been buying cauliflower, broccoli, celery, carrots, etc., and putting them in a "buffet" on the table while I cook dinner, so if anyone wants to snack, they are available.
Discipline is just choosing between what you want now, and what you want MOST.

I love to use my spiral slicer to turn zucchini into angel hair pasta, and serve it with sauce just like spaghetti. Super low calorie! Is there any reason it *has* to be raw? Cooking provides a broader range of possibilities and flavors, even within the vegetables you're already eating raw.

sugar snap peas and snow peas are my favorites along with mini bell peppers. I like to dip them in hummus :)

really you could eat just about any veggie raw, except for the starchy ones like potatoes.. and eggplant which needs to be cooked (but technically it is not a veggie it is a berry!) jicama is nice - very mild tasting and crisp, plain or with a dip, or simply sprinkled with a little chili powder and a squeeze of lime http://kitchen-parade-veggieventure.blogspot.ca/2011/05/what-is-jicama.html

I like raw mushroom, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, and cauliflower. Dip them in greek yoghurt tzatziki...mmmmm.
If you bring forth that which is within you, that which is within you will save you. If you do not bring forth that which is within you, that which you do not bring forth will destroy you.

Hi, I want to increase raw veggies in my diet. I was eating baby carrots every day as a snack...and now I am really sick of them. I tried a Red Bell Pepper today and I enjoyed that. Does anyone know of any other Raw Veggies I can try so I can vary it up?
