Steamed Winter Veggie Bowls image

Everything in this dinner (including the eggs!) cooks together in one steamer insert. It's the quick, fresh-tasting dinner we crave in the middle of winter when we can't stand the thought of another roasted vegetable. Leeks are the true stars, turning tender and sweet without losing their shape.
