Peel and thinly slice the onion. Mince the garlic cloves. Slice the carrot into thin rounds and the zucchini into half-moons.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until the onion starts to soften.
Add the carrot slices to the skillet and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the broccoli, cauliflower florets, and green beans. Pour in the vegetable broth, thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Cover the skillet and let the vegetables simmer for about 10 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp to your liking. Stir occasionally to make sure all vegetables are evenly cooked.
Remove the lid and continue cooking for another 5 minutes, allowing any excess liquid to evaporate.
Add the zucchini and lemon juice, and toss everything together for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the zucchini is just tender.
Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving warm.
