When we first met, my husband found the idea of a big green salad for dinner appalling. Now, he enjoys a big salad meal a few times a week. He has also broken the salt habit.
My husband also refused ALL raw veggies, including salad, when I met him. Once I started loading up his salad with hot meats (chicken, turkey, pork, whatever) and cheese on top, or fixed taco salads - sans shell of course - he started enjoying them and now we eat them daily. I think the cold greens may have hurt his teeth?

This accounts for about half our weekly dinners in summer. Mixed baby greens with nuts, cheese, olives, cukes, tomato and grilled chicken (wonderful when the warm chicken is placed on top of medallions of goat cheese, it gets all creamy) or fish. I also grill a lot of veggies with olive oil to eat warm with dinner, and cold all week in omelettes and on sandwiches.
