Instructions

  1. Wash the broccoli and cauliflower, and cut into bite-sized florets.
  2. Steam the broccoli until tender/crisp about 5 minutes. Remove and place into a large bowl.
  3. Steam the cauliflower until just cooked, about 4 minutes. Remove and place into the same bowl as the broccoli.
  4. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt, then add the lemon juice.
  5. Toss to mix well, taste and re-season as needed. Add more oil or lemon juice to taste, too.

Notes

  • Measurements are not critical in this recipe.
  • You can steam the vegetables together, BUT you will more than likely have one of the veg overcooked, or undercooked. Follow the recipe for best results.
  • Do not add all of the salt at once. You can always add more, but you cannot remove it.
  • If you do not have a steamer, you can cook the vegetables in a pot with a little water in the bottom and get the same results. Just make sure the water doesn't steam dry.
