Just pop them in teh microwave for 30 seconds or so, do they still taste ok or do they go rubbery?

What veg is it? Things like squash may go floppy!

For things like sweet potatoes and squash I cut them into sticks, then steam and freeze them.  Then I pop them in the toaster oven with a bit of oil to make them toasted (a healthier form of fries!).

I never froze veggies but used to make enough for 2 days and just kept them in the fridge overnight and offered them cold straight from the fridge the following day. Still do if we have left overs. My DS much prefers cold dinner anyway.
