Sesame Brocolli With Spinach And Red Peppers

I've said it before and I'll say it again.  As delicious as a meal may be, the way it looks adds much to the taste.  These holidays are all about color and generally we associate the celebrations  with red and green.
Why not emphasize those colors in the dishes we prepare? 

This vegetable dish combines two healthy green vegetables, brocolli and spinach, accented with strips of red. It would be a wonderful addition to any meal and guaranteed to get rave reviews.

Sometimes I add water chestnuts for a little crunch. but not always.
