  Fill a large pot or saucepan half filled with water, cover with a lid, and heat over medium high heat and bring to a boil. NOTE: I DID NOT ADD SALT TO THE WATER BY CHOICE. You may want to add salt if desired. Cook about 5 to 7 minutes, then drain in colander.

  Add hot veggies back into pot and cover with a lid so that the excess liquid can drain into the pot. Then retrieve veggies by hand and break into smaller pieces
