Steamed Vegetable Ribbons


From the Kitchen of:  Boomer
Source:  Taste of Home Light & Tasty

With a vegetable peeler or metal cheese slicer, cut very thin slices down the length of each carrot and zucchini, making long ribbons. Place carrots in a steamer basket over 1" of boiling water in a saucepan; cover and steam for 2 minutes. Add zucchini; cover and steam 2-3 minutes longer or until vegetables are tender. Transfer vegetables to a bowl. Add the lemon juice, oil, salt and pepper; toss to coat.
