Help With Lunch Please!!

I steam mine for about 15 mins. I think veggies taste better steamed you don't lose all the flavour into the water.

It depends on if you like them crunchy or soggy.

The less time they cook, the more nutrients are retained in the veggie. Boiling them leaches out all the vitamins. I steam mine!

I just cook them with a teeny bit of water for say 5 minutes. I agree it depends if you like them crunchy or not-the microwave works ok too. Add some slivered almonds!!

Stevie!...lol! when I to read your title of your Thread, I thought that you ask help to Finish the Lunch!! I could to put:
I Can!, I can!

Thanks guys...looks like steamed is the way to go! I have a little steamer, but must admit I've never used it. :ashamed: Do you just put water in a pot and put the veggies in the steaming basket and put over the water? I'm clueless, I know!

And Rigel, you can have lunch with me anytime! Bring Gemma and Milky too and we'll have a picnic!

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay late for this time, but for another time, you might want to consider microwaving. Add a sprig or two of fresh rosemary to the dish, with your beans and not much water, and microwave for 5-9 minutes, depending on quantity and how done you want them (tender crisp for my taste). Drain, remove the spent rosemary, add a tablespoon of butter and toss. You never met nicer beans.
