Ingredients

  • 6 cups assorted green vegetables in season
  • 2 tbs honey
  • 2 tbs vinegar
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt-reduced soy sauce
  • 1 fresh ginger, finely chopped

Method

  1. Slice vegetables to same size for even cooking.
  2. Steam vegetables for 6-8 minutes or microwave on HIGH (100%) for 3-4 minutes until crisp but tender.
  3. Place dressing ingredients in a saucepan and simmer over low heat until honey dissolves, or microwave on HIGH (100%) for 1 minute.
  4. Drain vegetables and toss through dressing. Serve immediately.

Hint
Good choices for green vegetables include zucchini, leek, celery, aspargaus, green beans, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, green capsicums, snow peas and bean-shoots. A great way to empty your refrigerator crisper, or to introduce new varieties of vegetables to the family.

Try mustard instead of mayonnaise to add extra flavour to your salads and sandwiches.

    HI Penny. I wish I had a special "yummy vegetarian" tag! It's been fixed, thanks for taking the time to let us know about these mistakes. -AF

    This should not be tagged 'vegan'. Having honey as an ingredient simply makes it yummy vegetarian.
