HOW TO STEAM FRESH BROCCOLI OR CAULIFLOWER

This is for my friends that only "cook" out of a can or in the microwave.
I love the taste of fresh vegetables...and their lack of sodium.

Wash your broccoli or cauliflower under running water. Slice off the end of the stems. 
Add water to your stock pot, just enough to cover the bottom, maybe about 1 inch of water or so. 
Add the steamer or colander bin.
Turn the stove onto high heat.
Arrange your broccoli and/or cauliflower in the pot.

Cover with a tight fitting lid.


Once the water starts boiling, set timer for 5-10 minutes depending on how crisp or soft you like your vegetables.
When done, turn off the heat and sprinkle shredded cheese or place sliced cheese on top of broccoli/cauliflower and quickly cover with lid to melt the cheese for a couple of minutes.



Sprinkle with sea salt and serve or cut up then serve.
