Begin by preparing all ingredients. Carefully wash and drain the vegetables under cold running water. Cut the cauliflower and broccoli into evenly sized florets.
Slice the carrots thinly and ensure the zucchini is cut into uniform slices. Trim the green beans to remove any tough ends.
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sautΓ© for 1 to 2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
Add the cauliflower, broccoli, and carrots to the skillet. Stir to coat the vegetables with the oil and garlic.
Cover the skillet with a lid and allow the vegetables to cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove the lid and add the zucchini and green beans. Continue to cook uncovered, stirring regularly, for another 8 to 10 minutes or until all vegetables are tender-crisp.
Sprinkle the fresh thyme leaves and chopped rosemary over the vegetables. Season with salt and black pepper. Stir well to combine all flavors.
Drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the vegetables. Stir well and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Once the vegetables are cooked to your desired tenderness, remove the skillet from heat.
Serve immediately as a healthy sugar-free side dish or a vegan main course. Enjoy your sugar-free Normandy vegetables with your choice of protein or grains.
