Steamed Veggies For Two With A Greek Yogurt Tahini Sauce Recipe

INGREDIENTS:

Steamed Veggies

• 1 small head broccoli
• 1 small bell pepper, seeds removed

Greek Yogurt Tahini Sauce

• 3 tablespoons Tahini
• 2 tablespoons plain fat-free Greek Yogurt
• 2 tablespoons olive oil (use water for a lower-fat version)
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 garlic clove, grated
• 2 tablespoons cilantro or parsley leaves, diced (I used cilantro)
• 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste
• 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, to taste

INSTRUCTIONS:

For the Steamed Veggies:

1. Chop the broccoli into small florets, and dice the bell pepper into thin strips.
2. Boil 1 inch of water in a small-medium pot that fits your steamer. Add the chopped vegetables and steam for about 5 minutes, or until vegetables are crisp tender and cooked to your liking. Remove from heat.

For the Greek Yogurt Tahini Sauce:

1. While the vegetables are steaming, whisk together the sauce ingredients in a medium bowl. Taste it and see if the sauce needs more salt, pepper, or lemon juice.
2. Pour the sauce over the steamed veggies while they are still hot.
