We may have a LONG wait - this "member" apparently gets their kicks out of what they are doing - beginning to look like a psycho poster to me - check out all the posts this joker has made - just getting the button ready - I'd love to see better input from this one -
If you reheat steamed or sauteed veggies a lot of times they will get very soggy and they also loose all their nutrients. I buy a medley of veggies, cut them the size I want, wash them and place portions into microwavable bags. You can keep the bags in the crisper of your fridge for longer then a week. When I come home at night, I just heat them for 2 or 3 minutes in the Micro (in that bag) take them out, add seasoning and sometimes a little butter.
Ingredients
12 oz fresh carrot, broccoli, and cauliflower medley (4 cups)
2 tablespoons water
1/4 cup apricot preserves
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon chile pepper blend paste
Steps
1. Cut vegetables into same-size pieces; add water and cover. Microwave on HIGH 2–3 minutes or until broccoli begins to soften.
2. Place remaining ingredients in large sauté pan. Cook and stir on medium-high 2–3 minutes or until mixture melts.
3. Stir vegetables into apricot mixture. Cook and stir 2–3 minutes or until tender. Serve.
There are some in grocery stores called "Steamers" that are made to microwave in. You can defrost in a sandwich bag but don't try to actually cook in one.
Thanks. I did know better than to try to nuke in a sandwich bag or even a freezer bag but didn't know about the 'steamers'. Someone's making money on a good idea. Wish I'd thought of that.
