Garlic Potatoes and Broccoli

My son loves meat but he can't have it only every other day. I use this side dish for a main. I just skip the garlic part because his little tummy is still sensitive and the flavor is too intensive for him. It is very simple but simple is always good. I prefer to steam the vegetables because they don't loose their vitamins and minerals and taste fantastic.

Ingredients
1 giant potato
1 small crown broccoli
3-4 garlic cloves chopped
1 stick butter
chives

Peel and cut the potatoes in chunks and steam in a double boiler for 30 min or until done. Remove and with same water steam the broccoli for 5 min. They should be soft but crispy and still have the nice green color. When done remove and arrange next to the potatoes. In skillet melt the butter add the garlic and chives. Saute for a minute and pour the butter on the vegetables.  Serve warm. Great side dish for meats.Yields 2 servings.
