About Mixed sauteed vegetables

Mixed sauteed vegetables typically consist of a variety of fresh vegetables cooked lightly in oil over medium heat. Commonly used in global cuisines such as Mediterranean, Asian, and American, sautéing allows the vegetables to retain their natural flavors and nutritional density while becoming tender. Vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, broccoli, mushrooms, and spinach are commonly included in mixed sautés. This dish is low in calories with minimal fat (if cooked in a healthy oil like olive oil), rich in dietary fiber, and loaded with essential nutrients including vitamins A, C, and K, folate, potassium, and antioxidants. It provides a versatile side or main dish that complements many dietary patterns, offering nourishment and flavor in every bite.

How much mixed sauteed vegetables should I eat per serving?
