We loved these lovely crunchy veggies! I used olive oil instead of the butter and had no cilantro so used parsley. Love this combination of veggies, thanks for posting, I will be making them again.

Delicious! I didn't have mushrooms, but added red onion. My children really liked it and asked for seconds.

*Made for Australia/NZ swap #68* Just LOVE steamed veggies ! used all recipe ingredients, (except cilantro gel), but was dealing with broiling fragile crab cakes, so steamed for 15 minutes and skipped the saute this time. Loaded everything in the steamer, so there wasn't much crunch (this time). lovely fresh taste and best of all, enough for another meal ! Thanks for posting, my original A/NZ swap partner !
