Begin by preparing the vegetables. Cut the broccoli and cauliflower into florets if not already done. Slice the zucchini and carrot thinly.
Mince the garlic cloves.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Add the broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, and carrot to the skillet. Stir well to coat the vegetables with the butter and garlic.
Cover the skillet and allow the vegetables to cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until they become tender but crisp.
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream. Stir gently to combine with the vegetables.
Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the mixture, stirring until it melts and the sauce thickens slightly.
Season with salt, black pepper, and thyme, adjusting the seasoning to taste.
Continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the vegetables are fully coated with the creamy sauce.
Remove from heat and serve the Low Carb Normandy Vegetables as a delicious side dish.
