How To: Steam healthy vegetables properly without a steamer

Other than eating your beets, carrots, and spinach raw (which many of us health-conscious people would like to do, but realistically know it would make us gag), steaming is the absolute best way to prepare your vegetables for consumption.

That's because steaming only minimally disturbs the nutrients in your vegetables, and the result is oil-free for minimal calories. Best of all, steaming is one of the easiest and fastest way to cook vegetables, so it suits girls or guys on the go who want to eat healthy.
