I love my steamer! I do green beans, broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, sweet potatoes & sometimes carrots. I like to make extras so the next meal I can just reheat in the microwave (like lunch at work or when I don't have time at dinner time).
I've been roasting veggies in the oven or you could do it in foil on the grill. This was from Weigh Watchers. I've been spraying a cookie sheet with nonstick spray then cutting up different colored peppers, mushrooms, zuchini squash and okra - lay then out on the sheet, spray a light nonstick spray over them & sprinkle with salt/pepper/seasoning & cook in the oven on 350 for 20-30 minutes. Again, make a bunch so it's ready to grab, reheat & eat. You could use other veggies that you like as well. This is very low calorie.
I just discovered sweet potatoes last month. Shut the front door!!! I either spray a cookie sheet with nonstick spray or I use a little olive oil on the potatoes & bake in the oven. I cut them in skinny wedges (they are a little hard to cut) spread on the cookie sheet & sprinkle with salt/pepper & bake away. Soooo good! I have also cut this in chunks & steam them & cooked in the microwave like a baked potatoe. I haven't found a way I don't like them :)
If any veggies in the fridge are getting near retirement I steam or bake them in the oven before it's too late.
I also have a nutribullet which I use for breakfast many days. Again, any fruit nearing retirement get thrown in the freezer so they can be used up in my smoothie. I get strawberry protein powder at walmart for extra protein in my drinks.
I've been eating a lot of the above as sides to my main dish. Try somethin new you might just love it!!!
