So the other night when I made the Coconut Flaxseed Bread that I posted about, I had this half a can of coconut milk left over and had no idea what to do with it… then it hit me… why don’t I pour it in the veggies that are steaming… Mmmm Mmmm Good!
Thai inspired steamed veggies!
VEGGIES STEAMED IN COCONUT MILK
Total time: 20-25 minutes
Serves: 6
1 head of broccoli
4 medium carrots
A big handful of asparagus

Cut veggies into bite size pieces.
Put carrots into pan and pour water over them.

**Add a little more of water, if needed
Add the rest of the veggies to the pan and pour the coconut milk on top.
Stir well.
Steam for 5-7 minutes.

Enjoy!

Sounds delicious!
My guests and I really loved it!
This sounds INCREDIBLE! I can’t wait to try it!
So simple and easy I can’t believe I didn’t think of it before!
Since I steam most of my veggies, I will really try this
You won’t regret it mom
OH YEAH!! Now that the frost is almost on the pumpkins, soups and stew will rule the stove and any with coconut milk always get a big smile from the fam…sounds so yummy.
Frost… Brrr! But pumpkins and squash warm you up! I love pumpkin soup!

I don’t know how you do this. I haven’t been able to read blogs in 2 or 3 days and you posted gazillion posts during this time. How do you do this?
I am glad you did, just have to find time to catch up…
Lol… Last week at work, nothing else to do so I write
now there will be a break since I’ll be in transit for about 26 hours!
