Vegetables Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and chop the broccoli, cauliflower, bell pepper, carrots, and zucchini into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Steam the Vegetables

    Fill a pot with about an inch of water and bring it to a boil. Place a steamer basket over the pot, add the chopped vegetables, cover, and steam for about 5-7 minutes or until they are tender but still crisp.

Citrus Dressing Preparation

  1. 3

    Mix Citrus Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh orange juice, lemon juice, olive oil, honey (or maple syrup), salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 4

    Add Parsley

    Stir in the chopped fresh parsley into the dressing.

Serving

  1. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Once the vegetables are steamed, transfer them to a serving dish, drizzle the citrus dressing over the top, and gently toss to combine. Serve warm.
