454 g (1 lb) carrots, diagonally sliced
1 red bell pepper, diced
125 mL (1/2 cup) orange juice
45 mL (3 tbsp) lemon juice
15 mL (1 tbsp) honey

In a steamer or colander set over a pot of boiling water, steam the carrots for 5 minutes. Add the bell pepper and steam for 1 minute or until the carrots and pepper are crisp-tender.
