Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and chop the broccoli, cauliflower, and bell pepper into bite-sized pieces. Slice the carrot into thin rounds.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Seasoning

    In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice together. This will be used to season the vegetables after steaming.

Steaming

  1. 3

    Set Up the Steamer

    Fill a pot with about 1 inch of water and place a steaming basket over it. Ensure the water does not touch the bottom of the basket.

  2. 4

    Steam the Vegetables

    Bring the water to a boil. Once boiling, add the broccoli, cauliflower, carrot, and bell pepper to the steaming basket. Cover the pot with a lid.

  3. 5

    Steam Time

    Steam the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes or until they are tender but still crisp.

Serving

  1. 6

    Mix and Serve

    Once the vegetables are steamed, remove them from the basket and place them in a serving bowl. Drizzle the prepared seasoning over the vegetables and toss gently to combine. Serve warm.
