    Crushed red pepper flake + lemon zest, and finished with a squeeze of lemon juice.

    I also broil all of my veggies instead of steam or saute. The charred edges are amazing.

    For broccoli - Olive Oil, Garlic, and Steak Seasoning - either in the oven, but it work out better on the grill in a foil pouch - oh yeah!

    I usually steam my veg but if I roast them I add olive oil & garlic with a few herbs added for a mediterranean taste.

    I love grilling asparagus. Coat with either melted butter or a scrambled egg. Sprinkle with black pepper and a dash of garlic. Good stuff!

    Steamed, mashed cauliflower mixed with a little butter, black pepper and garlic tastes like mashed potatoes, for people watching their carbs & starch.

    Stir-fry veggies are very good with 1/4 cup cream or milk and a tablespoon each of Splenda and Srirachi sauce. Makes a sweet-spicy coating.

    Also try with stir-fried veggies: 1/3 cup roughly chopped cilantro leaves, 3 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed; 1 tablespoon fresh ginger; 1 jalapeño pepper, roughly chopped (optional)

    For steamed veggies, I use a small dollop of butter (to help absorb fat soluble vitamins) and Celtic sea salt. Sometimes on peas or green beans, I use Simply Organic Italian dressing mix, and just sprinkle the powder over the steamed veggies. The small amount of butter and moisture on the veggies make the powder dissolve and stick. It's tasty. For roasted veggies, I use a lot of fresh garlic. Depending on what it is, I use rosemary, thyme, and basil as well.

    I'm a fan of OLD Bay seasoning or a little Tony Chacheres, just watch the salt. And garlic of course always with the garlic!

    I use a little bit of butter or just use Montreal Chicken Seasoning or Bruschetta herbs. I buy my spices from Epicure Selections. They are awesome and have no preservatives in them and most of them do not have salt in them.
