Snowy's right, you'll probably need some fats and oils with the veggies in the beginning. When I had a little one in my life, I found that adding mild cheddar, jack, mozzarella, provolone, or other more common cheeses to veggies made them a great deal more palatable to a feisty 2 to 3-year old. Try making a light cheese sauce (meaning a sauce made from light or low fat cheese) with carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, and such to dunk. Kids love to dunk things. And there's always the classic way to introduce celery: peanut butter. Stir fry is also a great way to introduce veggies; you can throw in bell peppers, onions, asparagus, broccoli, beans, snow peas, mushrooms and more, so long as there's meat and it's in a good sauce, they're likely to eat it.
Quiche is a very clever option. I hadn't thought of that. Who doesn't love quiche?
