Steamed Broccoli and Cauliflower
I have long enjoyed combining these two cruciferous vegetables. Broccoli takes slightly more time to cook than cauliflower, so it is given a head start.
Recipe information
Yield
4 to 6 servings
Ingredients
2 medium broccoli crowns, cut into bite-size pieces
1 small head cauliflower, cut into bite-size pieces
1 tablespoon nonhydrogenated margarine
Pinch of salt
Preparation
Step 1
Combine the broccoli in a large, deep saucepan or 1 1/2-quart casserole dish with about 1 inch of water. Steam over medium heat or microwave for 2 minutes to 3 minutes, just until it begins to turn bright green.
Step 2
Stir in the cauliflower and continue to steam or microwave until both are done to your liking, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain, and return to the casserole dish or a serving container. Stir in the margarine to melt, season with salt, and serve.
