Love this when the fresh veggies come in! Found online a few years ago. I love to top it with chopped tomato. Ingredients:
1/3 cup sliced ripe olives |
1/3 cup butter, melted |
1 tablespoon lemon zest |
3 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 pound fresh asparagus |
4 small red potatoes, unpeeled and sliced |
1 zucchini, sliced |
1 small sweet red pepper, cut into very thin 2-inch-long strips |
1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms |
1 (7 -ounce) jar baby corn ears, drained |
*chopped tomato for garnish |
Directions:
1. Combine first 4 ingredients; set aside. 2. Snap off tough ends of asparagus; remove scales from stalks with a knife or vegetable peeler, if desired. 3. Cut asparagus into 2-inch pieces. Set aside. 4. Arrange potato slices in a vegetable steamer over boiling water in a large Dutch oven; cover and steam 8 minutes. 5. Add asparagus, zucchini, pepper, and mushrooms; cover and steam 5 minutes. 6. Add corn; cover and steam 1 minute. 7. Transfer vegetable mixture to a bowl; toss gently with olive mixture. 8. Top with fresh chopped tomato |
