  • 2 slc low-fat cheddar cheese
  • 1 tsp freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. A colorful array of crisp, lightly steamed vegetables, this appetizing side dish can also serve as a hearty meatless meal for two. The pungent, garlicky dressing is anything but bland. Sometimes I garnish with a little chopped red bell pepper. As soon as you top the dish with the cheese, cover it with aluminum foil to trap the heat; this will help heat the cheese by the time you uncover the dish at the table.
  2. Put all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl, whisk to blend, and set aside.
  3. Bring water to a boil over high heat in a steamer. Fit the basket into the steamer and put in the string beans, carrots, and cauliflower. Cover and cook for 3 min. Add in the corn, yellow squash, zucchini, and broccoli. Re-cover and cook for 2 min more.
  4. Transfer the vegetables to a hot platter. Arrange the corn around the outer edge of the platter and dust it with the Spike seasoning. Drizzle the dressing over the vegetables in the center and top with the cheddar and Parmesan cheese. Cover briefly with aluminum foil before serving.
