Friday Food – Steamed Potatoes and Veggies

fridayfood2.jpgThis is one of my favorite summer meals. Many times I throw it on the grill in a grill wok when dh is grilling burgers or other heavier food that I don’t want.

Steamed Potatoes and Veggies

Use as much of each of these as you want – I’ve given approx. amounts we use for each large serving or 2. Wash/scrub each.

Red potatoes. If they are “new” size, leave whole. Otherwise half or quarter, depending on size. You want about 1.5″ chunks. I use about a large handful or so.

Zucchini and/or yellow squash, small size. Slice into chunks about 3/4 – 1″. About 1/2 per person.

Mushrooms (button). If small, leave whole. If larger, cut in half. About a small handful.

Carrots. Cut into quarters lengthwise, then half crosswise – 8 strips per carrot. About 1/2 carrot per person.

Celery. Cut in half lengthwise and thirds or fourths crosswise – 6-8 strips per stalk. About 1/2 stalk per person.

Red Pepper. Cut into strips. Just a few per person.

Onion. Slice, then cut slices in half or fourths. 1 slice or less per person. Or use pearl onions.

Sprinkle with dried Parsley.

Steam or grill until tender.

I like to serve with butter and sprinkled with a natural All Purpose Seasoning. Mrs. Dash No-Salt Table Seasoning is OK.

Serve with fresh lettuce salad.

Enjoy!
