Mixed Vegetables Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prep the Vegetables

   Wash all vegetables thoroughly. Peel the carrots and slice them into thin rounds. Remove the seeds from bell peppers and cut them into bite-sized pieces. Cut broccoli into small florets. Slice the zucchini into half-moons and trim the ends of the green beans.

2. 2

   Heat the Oil

   In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Allow the oil to warm for about 1-2 minutes.

3. 3

   Sauté the Garlic

   Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned.

4. 4

   Add the Vegetables

   Add the carrots, bell peppers, broccoli, zucchini, and green beans to the skillet. Stir well to coat the vegetables in the oil and garlic.

5. 5

   Season and Cook

   Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the vegetables. Stir occasionally and cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

6. 6

   Finish with Lemon Juice

   Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle lemon juice over the cooked vegetables. Toss gently to combine.

7. 7

   Serve

   Transfer the mixed vegetables to a serving dish and enjoy warm as a side dish or over rice or quinoa.
