Actually in botany, all vegetables and fruits are known as Fruits!! But I Know Wat U Mean!!

Techinically these are fruits, but they are fruits we regard as vegetables.

Avocado
Chiles and peppers
Pumpkin, squash
Cucumber
Green beans

Actually, pretty much everything is a fruit. We just use the term vegetable to distinguish savory from sweet. I found this simple definition that will hopefully clear things up.

A fruit is the matured ovary of a flower, containing the seed. After fertilization takes place and the embryo (plantlet) has begun to develop, the surrounding ovule becomes the fruit. Yum. I won't go on about the four types of fruit--simple, aggregate, multiple and accessory--which explain things like berries and pineapples.

A vegetable is considered to be edible roots, tubers, stems, leaves, fruits, seeds, flower clusters, and other softer plant parts. In common usage, however, there is no exact distinction between a vegetable and a fruit. The usual example is the tomato, which is a fruit, but is eaten as a vegetable, as are cucumbers, peppers, melons, and squashes. The classification of plants as vegetables is largely determined by custom, culture, and usage.

If it's a list you're looking for:

apples
bananas
cherries
peppers
zuchini
oranges
grapefruit
lemons
limes
mangos
coconuts
grapes
strawberries
raspberries
watermelon
cantaloupe
honeydew
blueberries
kiwi
squash
carambola
avocado
peaches
necterines
cucumbers
pickles
eggplant
okra

the list goes on...
