Peel the carrots and slice them into thin rounds.
Core and slice the red bell pepper into thin strips.
Trim the ends of the green beans and cut them into 2-inch pieces.
Halve the cherry tomatoes and set them aside.
Mince the garlic cloves finely.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Add the carrots to the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, and green beans to the skillet. Stir well to combine and cook for another 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender but still slightly crisp.
Add the cherry tomatoes, fresh thyme, fresh rosemary, black pepper, and water to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for 2-3 more minutes, allowing the tomatoes to soften slightly.
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the vegetables. Toss lightly to combine.
