Lemon Pepper Veggies

plated5

Alright, I’m about to show you all something so simple that I feel kind of silly even posting this. I can’t NOT post it though, because, well, this has become one of my favorite foods and no, it doesn’t even contain chocolate or sugar. I’m about to show you how to take a boring bag of frozen vegetables and turn them in to something that you will enjoy. Yes, really. Vegetables. That taste good. Weird, isn’t it?

I am addicted to those steam in the bag frozen veggies, but they kind of freak me out at the same time. I’m not sure how healthy it is to be microwaving that plastic bag and letting your foods cook in all those chemicals, but man, they are so quick and easy to use. If you have a serious aversion to quick, easy, chemical-leaching foods, just go ahead and cook your veggies a different way. Steam them, boil them, microwave them in a glass bowl, whatever. Me, I’ll stick to the steam in a bag veggies and pretend that the extra eyeball I’m growing is pretty.

ingredients

All you need is a 12 ounce bag of frozen vegetables (I prefer a mixture of broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots, but you could probably do this with just about any combination of vegetables and you’d get good results.), a tablespoon of butter, and lemon pepper seasoning.

Cook your frozen veggies  however you like. While they are cooking, get out a bowl large enough to fit them all in and add in one tablespoon of butter. Let the butter soften up a bit on the counter or pop it in the microwave for a few seconds.

cooked

Dump your cooked vegetables into the bowl right on top of the butter and sprinkle the top with some lemon pepper seasoning. (If you want to get all fancy and use real lemon juice and seasonings, go ahead, but the stuff in your spice rack will work just as well. Promise.) You can use as much or as little as you like. I usually sprinke on a couple of teaspoons, then stir it all up to distribute the butter and sprinkle on some more seasoning and stir it again. I probably use about one tablespoon of lemon pepper seasoning.

Oh, man. These veggies taste so good. Lemon just really brightens up the flavor of the vegetables and brings it all to life. Mm. Mmmmmm! Yum.

You can make this using any amount of vegetables, just adjust the butter and seasoning to your liking. Now, go make it. That’s an order.

    @chels I know what you mean, its hard to find good help these days. People now days just don’t have the work ethic they used to have. I mean consider whoever wrote this post, they must have been working hard to write that good and it took a good bit of their time I am sure. I work with people who couldn’t write like this if they tried, and getting them to try is hard enough as it is.

    This is sort of a big resource that you are providing and you give it away for costless. I enjoy catching internet sites that understand the value of supplying a quality resource for costless.

    This is getting a bit far more subjective, but I very much choose the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has a lot more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see associated albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one particular of individuals will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will occur into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” can also be great enjoyable, letting you come across others with shared tastes and becoming good friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist developed depending on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which can also be enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to learn it is possible to prevent the public from seeing your individual listening habits should you so decide on.

    One of most likely the most typical geniuses of peppers, known as the capsicum, is thought to possess been in existence thousands and thousands of many years in the past in present-day Bolivia, in accordance in the direction of the Chicago Botanic Garden’s Information and Resources. But, the first identified cultivation of peppers occurred in Mexico and Central, as very well as South America ten,000 a long time ago.
