Broccoli and Peppers
If you don't have a steamer basket, improvise with a metal colander to prepare this healthful vegetable dish.
1 lb broccoli, cut into flowerets
1 medium red or yellow sweet pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 Tbs reduced-calorie margarine or regular margarine
1 Tbs lemon juice
1/8 tsp pepper
1 tsp finely shredded lemon peel
1 Place broccoli and pepper in a steamer basket over simmering water. Steam, covered, for 8 to 12 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender. Drain.
2 Arrange on a serving platter. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan melt the margarine. Stir in lemon peel, lemon juice, and pepper. Drizzle over broccoli mixture. Makes 6 servings.
Servings: 6
