Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium zucchini
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium yellow squash
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Start by prepping the vegetables: slice the zucchini and yellow squash into half-moons about 1/4 inch thick. Cut the red bell pepper into strips.
Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until it's fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
Add the sliced zucchini, yellow squash, and broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir well to coat them with the olive oil and garlic.
After 5 minutes, add the red bell pepper strips. Continue to cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Season the medley with dried oregano, salt, and ground black pepper, stirring to blend the seasonings evenly.
Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
Serve the vegetable medley warm as a side or a light, low-carb meal.
