Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 cups asparagus (trimmed and cut in 2-inch pieces)
  • 1 cups green beans (trimmed and cut in 2-inch pieces)
  • 1 cups green peas (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • ¼ cup fresh herbs such as dill, parsley, etc, minced
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salty water to a boil then add the green beans and asparagus. Cook for 2 minutes before adding in the green peas. Boil for an additional minute before removing with a slotted spoon and submerging in to a large bowl with ice water. Strain and place in a large bowl.
  2. Drizzle the blanched veggies with all the remaining ingredients (olive oil through salt and pepper.) Toss well and check for seasoning, adjust accordingly before serving.

Notes

  • Blanching vegetables is a great way to quickly stop the cooking process ensuring the vegetables remain bright green with a nice slightly crunchy texture. In other words, no soggy or yellow veggies.
