5-Minute Steamed Veggies
Sep 18th 2025
Need a fast, feel-good side? Start with a steam-in-bag veggie mix, then finish with The Olive Leaf flavored olive oil and Seasonello Bologna Herbal Salt. The warm vegetables soak up the oil’s aroma and the herbal salt’s savory snap—simple, colorful, and truly craveable.
Ingredients (serves 2–4)
- 1 (12–16 oz) steam-ready frozen vegetable bag (any mix)
- 1–2 Tbsp The Olive Leaf Olive Oil (any flavor)
- ½–1 tsp The Olive Leaf Seasonello Bologna Herbal Salt, to taste
Optional finishers (pick 1–2): lemon zest or juice, crushed red pepper, grated Parmesan, toasted nuts or seeds, chopped fresh herbs.
Directions
- Steam. Cook vegetables in the bag per package directions until crisp-tender.
- Drain & toss. Open carefully, let excess moisture escape, and add veggies to a warm bowl. Drizzle with flavored olive oil and sprinkle with Seasonello.
- Finish. Add any optional finishers, toss again, and serve hot.
