How often have you seen an advertisement for broccoli or cauliflower? Not too often! But once you start working this side dish into your weekly diet, you will become a walking commercial for the goodness of these steamed vegetables. Eating this alongside fish, chicken, or steak leaves you feeling cleansed and satisfied, yet never stuffed.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 bunch broccoli, cut into florets, thick stems discarded (about 3/4 pound of broccoli)
  • 1/2 head cauliflower, cut into florets (about 3/4 pound of cauliflower)
  • 2 small zucchini, trimmed and sliced (about 3/4 pound)
  • 1 small carrot, trimmed, peeled, and sliced
  • zest of 1 lemon, finely grated

Directions

  • Chop the broccoli and cauliflower florets into bite-size pieces.
  • In a steamer basket set over boiling water or in an electric steamer, steam the vegetables for 3 to 5 minutes, or until fork-tender. Serve the steamed vegetables sprinkled with zest.
