Start by preparing all vegetables: thinly slice the zucchini and yellow squash into half-moons, cut the red bell pepper into strips, and slice the mushrooms.
Mince the garlic cloves, and set aside.
In a large skillet or sauté pan, heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat until the butter is melted and bubbling.
Add the minced garlic to the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, and broccoli florets to the pan. Stir well to coat the vegetables with the oil and butter mixture.
Sprinkle the salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning over the vegetables. Continue to sauté, stirring occasionally, for about 6-8 minutes or until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Add the mushrooms to the pan and sauté for another 3 minutes.
Finally, add the fresh baby spinach, cooking and stirring until wilted, about 2 minutes.
Once the spinach is wilted, sprinkle the parmesan cheese over the vegetables and turn off the heat.
Serve immediately while warm, and enjoy the perfect keto-friendly vegetable sauté as a side or main dish.
