Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 medium zucchini, sliced into rounds
- 1 medium yellow squash, sliced into rounds
- 1 large red bell pepper, diced
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
Instructions
Wash and prepare all the vegetables: mince the garlic, dice the onion and bell pepper, slice the zucchini and yellow squash, and halve the cherry tomatoes.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and diced onion to the pan. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
Add the zucchini, yellow squash, and red bell pepper to the pan. Stir well and cook for 5 minutes, allowing the vegetables to start softening and lightly browning.
Toss in the broccoli florets and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the cherry tomatoes to the pan, along with the salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften.
Turn off the heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the vegetables. Sprinkle with chopped parsley for a fresh finish.
Transfer the Garden Vegetable Combo to a serving dish and enjoy it hot as a side dish or on its own.
